A stone is thrown with an initial speed of 11.5 m/s at an angle of 50.0 above the horizontal from the top of a 30.0-m-tall building. Assume air resistance is negligible, and g = 9.8 m/s2. What is the magnitude of the horizontal displacement of the rock?

Respuesta :

Answer:

The magnitude of the horizontal displacement of the rock is 7.39 m/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial speed = 11.5 m/s

Angle = 50.0

Height = 30.0 m

We need to calculate the horizontal displacement of the rock

Using formula of horizontal component

[tex]v_{x}=u\cos\theta[/tex]

Put the value into the formula

[tex]v_{x}=11.5\times\cos50[/tex]

[tex]v_{x}=7.39\ m/s[/tex]

Hence, The magnitude of the horizontal displacement of the rock is 7.39 m/s.
