Phoebe threw a frisbee horizontally that traveled 125 m. the frisbee left her hand traveling at 45 m/s. as the frisbee travels in the air it slows down with a deceleration of 5.6 m/s2. how long was the frisbee in the air? when mike caught it, how fast was it traveling?

1) 3.57 s

The motion of the frisbee is a uniformly accelerated motion, so we can use the suvat equation:

$s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2$

where

s is the displacement

u is the intiial velocity

t is the time

a is the acceleration

Here we have

s = 125 m (distance travelled)

u = 45 m/s (initial velocity)

a=-5.6 m/s^2 (deceleration of the frisbee)

Substituting into the equation, we get

$125 = 45t-2.8t^2\\2.8t^2-45t+125=0$

The solution of this equation are:

$t=\frac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}=\frac{-(-45) \pm \sqrt{(-45)^2-4(2.8)(125)}}{2(2.8)}$

Which gives two solutions:

t = 3.57 s

t = 12.50 s

So, the frisbee crosses the point at distance d = 125 m from Phoebe two times: at 3.57 s the first time, then if it is free to move, the frisbee continues its motion and then at some point moves back to this point at t = 12.5 s. Since we are interested in the time at which Mike caught the frisbee, we just take the first solution:

t = 3.57 s

2) 25 m/s

Since this is a uniformly accelerated motion, the velocity of the frisbee is given by

v=u+at

where we have

u = 45 m/s is the initial velocity

a=-5.6 m/s^2 is the acceleration of the frisbee

Since the frisbee has been caught at time

t = 3.57 s

We can substitute this value into the equation to find the final velocity of the frisbee:

v=45+(-5.6)(3.57)=25.0 m/s

The frisbee was in air for 12.5 seconds and when mike caught it it's speed was = 10m/s

Explanation:

we know that distance travelled horizontally is given by

$\mathrm{s}=\mathrm{u} \mathrm{t}+1 / 2 * \mathrm{a} t^{2}$

where s = total distance travelled = 125 (given),

u = initial velocity = 45m/s (given) ,

a = acceleration = -5.6 m/s^2 (since we are given deceleration a = negative) and

t = total travel time

substituting these values in the formula

125 = 45*t + (1/2)(-5.6) t^2

we get t = 12.5 and 3.578... since 12.5 is more accurate value

we take t = 12.5 which gives the time for which frisbee stays in air

also we know speed = $\frac{\text { distance }}{\text { time }}$

since we are given total distance = 125m

and total time we have found, t = 12.5

we get speed = $\frac{125}{12.5}=10$

= 10m/s is how fast the frisbee was when mike caught it.

The dipole moment of the water molecule (h2o) is 6.17x10^-30 c.m. consider a water molecule located at the origin whose dipole moment p points in the +x-direction. a chlorine ion ( of charge-1.60x10^-19c , is located at x=3.00x10^-9m . assume that is much larger than the separation d between the charges in the dipole, so that the approximate expression for the electric field along the dipole axis can be used. a) find the magnitude of the electric force that the water molecule exerts on the chlorine ion. b) what is the direction of the electric force. -x-direction or +x-direction c) is this force attractive or repulsive?
