Quiz 02: Chapter 12
At halftime of a football game, souvenir balls are thrown to the spectators with
a velocity 𝑣" . Determine 𝑣" for a ball to land halfway between points B and C. y

𝑣"# = 𝑣" cos 𝜃 = 𝑣" cos 40°

𝑥 = 𝑣"# 𝑡 = 𝑣" 𝑡 cos 40°
𝑥 = 8m + (10m + 3.5m) cos 35° = 19.06m
x

𝑣" 𝑡 = = 24.88m
cos 40°
𝑣"; = 𝑣" sin 𝜃 = 𝑣" sin 40°
? ?
𝑦 = 𝑦" + 𝑣"; 𝑡 + @𝑎; 𝑡 @ = 0.5m + 𝑣" 𝑡 sin 40° − @𝑔𝑡 @

𝑦 = (10m + 3.5m) sin 35° = 7.74m
