Q4.2 No, you cannot determine the instantaneous velocity. Yes, you can determine the average velocity. The points could be widely separated. In this case, you can only determine the average velocity, which is

Q4.3 (a) (b)
*Q4.4 (i) The 45° angle means that at point A the horizontal and vertical velocity components are equal. The horizontal velocity component is the same at A, B , and C. The vertical velocity component is zero at B and negative at C. The assembled answer is a = b = c = e > d = 0 > f (ii) The x -component of acceleration is everywhere zero and the y -component is everywhere
Q4.5 A parabola results, because the originally forward velocity component stays constant and the rocket motor gives the spacecraft constant acceleration in a perpendicular direction.
Q4.6 (a) yes (b) no: the escaping jet exhaust exerts an extra force on the plane. (c) no (d) yes (e) no: the stone is only a few times more dense than water, so friction is a significant force on the stone. The answer is (a) and (d).
Q4.7 The projectile is in free fall. Its vertical component of acceleration is the downward acceleration of gravity. Its horizontal component of acceleration is zero.
Q4.8 (a) no (b) yes (c) yes (d) no. Answer: (b) and (c)
*Q4.9 The projectile on the moon is in flight for a time interval six times larger, with the same range of vertical speeds and with the same constant horizontal speed as on Earth. Then (i) its range is (d) six times larger and (ii) its maximum altitude is (d) six times larger. Apollo astronauts performed the experiment with golf balls.
Q4.10 (a) no. Its velocity is constant in magnitude and direction. (b) yes. The particle is continuously changing the direction of its velocity vector.
Q4.11 (a) straight ahead (b) either in a circle or straight ahead. The acceleration magnitude can be constant either with a nonzero or with a zero value.
*Q4.12 (i) a = v^2 r becomes 3^2 3 = 3 times larger: answer (b). (ii) T = 2 π r v changes by a factor of 3 3 = 1. The answer is (a).
Q4.
The skater starts at the center of the eight, goes clockwise around the left circle and then counter- clockwise around the right circle.
*Q4.14 With radius half as large, speed should be smaller by a factor of 1 2 , so that a = v^2 r can be the same. The answer is (d).
*Q4.15 The wrench will hit (b) at the base of the mast. If air resistance is a factor, it will hit slightly leeward of the base of the mast, displaced in the direction in which air is moving relative to the deck. If the boat is scudding before the wind, for example, the wrench’s impact point can be in front of the mast.
*Q4.16 Let the positive x direction be that of the girl’s motion. The x component of the velocity of the ball relative to the ground is +5 – 12 m s = –7 ms. The x -velocity of the ball relative to the girl is –7 – 8 m s = –15 m s. The relative speed of the ball is +15 m s, answer (d).

Section 4.3 Projectile Motion
P4.9 (a) The mug leaves the counter horizontally with a velocity vxi (say). If time t elapses before it hits the ground, then since there is no horizontal acceleration, x (^) f = vxi t , i.e.,

P4.10 The mug is a projectile from just after leaving the counter until just before it reaches the floor. Taking the origin at the point where the mug leaves the bar, the coordinates of the mug at any time are
x (^) f = vxi t + a tx = vxit +
(^2 0) and y (^) f = vyi t + a ty = − g t
2 2
When the mug reaches the floor, y (^) f = − h so
− h = − g t
2
which gives the time of impact as
t h g
(a) Since x (^) f = d when the mug reaches the floor, x (^) f = vxi t becomes d h xi g = v
giving the initial velocity as
vxi d g h

P4.20 From the instant he leaves the floor until just before he lands, the basketball star is a projectile.
Applying this to the upward part of his flight gives 0 = v^2 yi + (^2) ( −9 80. m s (^2) ) (1 85. −1 02. )m. From this, vyi = 4 03. m s. [Note that this is the answer to part (c) of this problem.] For the downward part of the flight, the equation gives vyf^2 = 0 + (^2) ( −9 80. m s (^2) ) ( 0 900. −1 85. )m. Thus the vertical velocity just before he lands is vyf = −4 32. m s
(a) His hang time may then be found from v (^) yf = vyi + a ty :
− 4 32. m s = 4 03. m s + −( 9 80. m s (^2) )t
or t = 0 852. s.
(b) Looking at the total horizontal displacement during the leap, x = vxi t becomes
which yields vxi = 3 29. m s.
(c) vyi = 4.03 m s. See above for proof.

vyf^2 = 0 + (^2) ( −9 80. m s (^2) ) ( 0 700. −2 50. )mand vyf = −5 94. m s

(a) Yes. The particle can be either speeding up or slowing down, with a tangential component of acceleration of magnitude 6 2 − 4 5. 2 =3 97. m /s 2.

Let u represent the speed of S ′ relative to S. Then because there is no x -motion in S , we can write v (^) x = vx ′ + u = 0 so that v ′ = − x u = −10 0. m s. Hence the ball is thrown backwards in S ′. Then,

P4.45 Refer to the sketch. We find it convenient to solve part (b) f irst.
(b) ∆ x = vxi t ; substitution yields 130 = ( vi cos 35 0. °) t.
∆ y = v (^) yit + at
(^2) ; substitution yields
. = ( vi sin. °) + t ( −9 80. ) t^2
Solving the above by substituting vi t = 159 gives 20 = 91 − 4.9 t^2 so t = 3 81. s.

P4.46 At any time t , the two drops have identical y -coordinates. The distance between the two drops is then just twice the magnitude of the horizontal displacement either drop has undergone. Therefore,

*P4.49 (a) We find the x coordinate from x = 12 t. We find the y coordinate from 49 t − 4.9 t^2. Then we fi nd the projectile’s distance from the origin as ( x^2 + y^2 ) 1/2^ , with these results:
t (s) 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 r (m) 0 45.7 82.0 109 127 136 138 133 124 117 120
(b) From the table, it looks like the magnitude of r is largest at a bit less than 6 s. The vector v tells how r is changing. If v at a particular point has a component along r , then r will be increasing in magnitude (if v is at an angle less than 90° from r ) or decreasing (if the angle between v and r is more than 90°). To be at a maximum, the distance from the origin must be momentarily staying constant, and the only way this can happen is for the angle between velocity and displacement to be a right angle. Then r will be changing in direction at that point, but not in magnitude.
(c) The requirement for perpendicularity can be defined as equality between the tangent of the angle between v and the x direction and the tangent of the angle between r and the y direc- tion. In symbols this is (9.8 t − 49) 12 = 12 t (49 t − 4.9 t^2 ), which has the solution t = 5.70 s, giving in turn r = 138 m. Alternatively, we can require dr^2 dt = 0 = ( d dt )[(12 t )^2 + (49 t − 4.9 t^2 )^2 ], which results in the same equation with the same solution.

Then the range follows from x = vxit + 0 = v 0 t as x (^) ( v (^) 0 ) = v (^) 0 0 164 3. + 0 002 299. v (^) 02 +0 047 94. v 02 where x is in meters and v 0 is in meters per second.
(b) Substituting v 0 = 0.1 gives x ( v 0 ) = 0.0410 m (c) Substituting v 0 = 100 gives x ( v 0 ) = (^) 961 m (d) When v 0 is small, v 02 becomes negligible. The expression x ( v 0 ) simplifies to v (^) 0 0 164 3. + 0 + 0 = 0 405. v 0 Note that this gives nearly the answer to part (b). (e) When v 0 is large, v 0 is negligible in comparison to v 02. Then x ( v 0 ) simplifies to x (^) ( v (^) 0 ) ≈ v (^) 0 0 + 0 002 299. v (^) 02 + 0 047 94. v 02 =0 0959. v 02 This nearly gives the answer to part (c).
(f) The graph of x versus v 0 starts from the origin as a straight line with slope 0.405 s. Then it curves upward above this tangent line, getting closer and closer to the parabola x = (0.095 9 s^2 m) v 02
