Question

You are on an Infinadeck, which is an omnidirectional treadmill meant to keep you in the same position, even when you begin to move.
You begin to walk with a speed of 2.4 m/s, at an angle 37° North of East, as shown in the image below.
In order to account for your movement, what should the western component of the treadmill's velocity be?
What should the southern component of the treadmill's velocity be?​

Answer 1

The correct answer is v_w= -2.0354400761 m/s and v_s=-1.54449152 m/s

Velocity v = 2.4 m/s

angle θ =37

When a particle is projected, it does so at an angle to the horizontal in this scenario. Gravity will only act in the vertical direction, and along the horizontal direction there is no force, hence the acceleration acting on the projectile is only in the vertical direction. To solve this, we will determine the velocity along the x and y axes at time t.

a)  western component of the treadmill's velocity is

v_w= v cosθ

v_w= 2.4cos(37)

v_w= -2.0354400761 m/s

b) southern component of the treadmill's velocity is

v_s=v sinθ

v_s= 2.4sin (37)

v_s=-1.54449152 m/s
