Application: Projectile Motion!

ax = 0 and ay = -g

x motion:

y motion:

vx(t) = vxi

x(t) = xi + vxit

y(t) = yi + vyit - ½gt2

vy(t) = vyi - gt

Projectile Motion - Example

A ball rolls off of a shelf 2.20 m high with an initial velocity of 0.75 m/s.

2.20 m

Vix=0.75 m/s

Find how far from the shelf the ball first hits the ground.

Example - Continued

Knowns Unknowns

Vix=0.75 m/s

General strategy: Use TIME as the common denominator between the two dimensions.

X Y X Y

ax=0 m/s

ay =-9.8 m/s2

-2.20 m=∆y

Viy=0 m/s

?=∆x

HERE: Use known Y’s to find time ball takes to fall...find X at that time

Example - Continued

�+=∆ 2

21 attvy i -2.20=0(t) + .5(-9.8)t2

t = +/- 1.49 s--- Choose positive

WHY two solutions?

All falls are parabolic.

We started at top (vx=0)

Two solutions, but only one really happened!

+t-t

Found time for ball to fall.

Example - Continued

Knowns Unknowns

Vix=0.75 m/sTime to FALL is same as time to MOVE in X direction.

So…

X Y X Y

ax=0 m/s

ay =-9.8 m/s2

-2.20 m=∆y

Viy=0 m/s

?=∆x

=+=∆ 2

tatvx xix 0.75(1.49)+1/2(0)(1.49)2

=1.12 m from edge of table

t = 1.49 s SHARED BY X AND Y

Trajectory

Shape of “flight path” is parabola

Eliminate time, t, from y(t) using x(t) withcomponents in terms of initial angle.

How do we find total time in flight ttot?Find time for y(t) to get back to yi.

ttot = 0 or ttot =
