Question

A stone is thrown, run a velocity of 15m/s is projected of an elevation of 30° to the horizontal calculate the time rate of flight

Answer 1

1.53 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

Applying,

T = 2usin∅/g................ Equation 1

Where, T = time of flight, u = initial velocity, ∅ = angle of projectile to the horizontal, g = acceleration due to gravity

From the question,

Given: u = 15 m/s, ∅ = 30°

Constant: g = 9.8 m/s²

Substitute these values in equation 1

T = 2(15)(sin30°)/9.8

T = 15/9.8

T = 1.53 seconds

Hence the time rate of flight is 1.53 seconds
