Answer:
The magnitude of velocity=60.82 m/s
Explanation:
Given that
V(ox)=60 m/s
V(oy)=175 m/s
We know that in projectile motion
In y-direction
The time of flight T=40 s
Time to reach at maximum height is 20 sec and that point component of velocity in y-direction will become zero.
At 20 sec object will have zero velocity in y-direction.
So at t=21 sec
Velocity V= g Δt
V= 10 (21-20) m/s
V=10 m/s
It means that velocity will be in negative y-direction(downward).
In x-direction
The x-component of velocity will remain constant in x-direction
Vx=60 m/s
The magnitude of velocity after 21 s
[tex]Magnitude=\sqrt{10^2+60^2} [/tex]
The magnitude of velocity=60.82 m/s
