ESSAY

59. ANS:

a As the angle of the kick increases from 0 to 90, the x component of the initial velocity decreases, but the time of flight gradually increases. The horizontal range of the kick increases until 45, when it becomes a maximum, and then the horizontal range decreases from 45 to 90.As the angle of the kick increases from 0 to 90, the y component of the initial velocity increases. The height of the kick gradually increases until it reaches a maximum when the ball is kicked almost vertically.The time of flight is at a maximum when the acceleration due to gravity acts the longest. This occurs when the initial velocity is almost vertical.

b If the punter wishes to achieve the longest punt, then a kick at 45 is preferred. However, if the punter desires a longer hang-time, then a kick at more that 45 is preferred.

(c) A punter often prefers a punt at 45.0 because he wants to achieve maximum range.

d Assume that the initial speed is 30 m/s.

If the ball is kicked at an angle of 20, then:

The time of flight is:

Total time is 2 1.05 s = 2.10 s.The range is:

If the ball is kicked at an angle of 70, then:

vy =sin 70 (30 m/s) = 28.2 m/s (ignore next line)The time of flight is:

Total time is 2 2.87 s = 5.74 s.The range is:

The range is therefore the same at both angles.

60. ANS:The kinetic friction of the ice on the stone gives it a negative acceleration. Once you know the acceleration, you can calculate the speed. Consider west to be the positive direction.

= (0.00200)(– 9.81 m/s2)= – 0.01962 m/s2

vf2 = vi

2 + 2advi

2 = vf2 – 2ad

= 0 – 2(–0.01962 m/s2)(28.35 m) = 1.112 m2/s2

vi = 1.05 m/s

The speed of the stone when it was released was 1.05 m/s [W].
