a bird flying horizontally accidently drops a rock it was carrying. 2.10s later,the rocks velocity is 22.2m/s in a -68.2 direction. what was the birds (and rocks) initial velocity

Respuesta :

Answer:

8.24 m/s

Explanation:

Given:

t = 2.10 s

v₀ᵧ = 0 m/s

vâ‚“ = 22.2 cos(-68.2) m/s

aₓ = 0 m/s²

Find: vâ‚€

In the x direction:

v = at + vâ‚€

22.2 cos(-68.2) = (0) (2.10) + v₀ₓ

v₀ₓ = 8.24

v₀² = v₀ₓ² + v₀ᵧ²

v₀² = (8.24)² + (0)²

vâ‚€ = 8.24 m/s
