Question

a projectile is fired in the earths gravitational field with a horizontal velocity in v = 9.00m/s. how far does it go in the horizontal direction in .550 s?

Answer 1

Answer:

Distance traveled by projectile in horizontal direction will be 4.95 m  

Explanation:

We have given horizontal velocity of the projectile v = 9 m/sec

We have to find the distance traveled by projectile in 0.550 sec in horizontal direction.

We know that distance is equal to multiplication of speed and time

So distance traveled in horizontal direction will be equal to $d=v\times t=9\times 0.550=4.95m$

So distance traveled by projectile in horizontal direction will be 4.95 m  

Answer 2

Answer:

4.95 m

Explanation:

Horizontal velocity of projectile, u = 9 m/s

time, t = 0.550 s

The horizontal distance, d = horizontal velocity x time

d = 9 x 0.55

d = 4.95 m

Thus, the horizontal distance traveled is 4.95 m.
