Question A fount follows a path with distance in km, which is given by Given that the flat stop number is expressed as V(x) = x, find the direction and magnitude of the velocity when the special K hits the ground if time taken is in minutes. The assumption made here(predicate) is such that the terrain is all level (Bourne, 2011). Solution Let us first see a graph of the motion, to clarify what is going on. It can be seen that the jet hits the ground again somewhere around x = 9.5 km. At this point, the horizontal velocity is positive (the jet is from going left to right) and the vertical velocity is banish (the jet is going down). V(x) = x means that as x increases, the horizontal velocity also increases with the same number (different units, of course). So for example, at x = 2 km, the horizontal speed is 2 km/min, and at x = 7 km, the horizontal speed is 7 km/min, and so on. To calculate the magnitude of the velocity as the jet hits the ground, it is important that we know the vertical and horizontal aspects of the velocity at this instance. (1) Horizontal velocity. In order to find the exact point the come up hits the ground, it is necessary to find a solution for the following equation we only need to solve the following Factorizing gives And solving for 0 gives us x = 0, x = -3v10, x = 3v10 We only need the last value, x = 3v10 ? 9.4868 km (This value is consistent with the graph above). So the horizontal speed when the rocket hits the ground is 9.4868 km/min (since V(x) = x). (2) Vertical velocity. We now need to use implicit differentiation with respect to t (not x) to find the vertical velocity. However, we already know dx/dt and x at impact, so we simply substitute This gives us a negative velocity, as we expected before So now, we need to calculate the magnitude of the velocity. This considers twain the horizontal and vertical components. Magnitude = Substituting, we have Velocity has magnitude and direction. Now for part of the dire ction. Angle of motion Substituting our vertical and horizontal components, we have In degrees, this is equivalent to -1.107148718 ? 57.25578 = -63.3907 We can see that this answer is reasonable by zooming in on that part of the graph where the jet hits the ground (with equal-axis scaling) Therefore, in summary, the velocity of the jet when it hits the ground is 21.2 km/min in the direction 63.4
