Question

A bottle rocket takes off with a speed of 13 m/s and is angled 55 degrees above the horizon. What is the Y component of the velocity ?

Answer 1

10.53m/s

Step-by-step explanation:

Initial velocity: 13m/s

Angle of projection: 55deg

Y-component of velocity is given as usin⌀

Plugging in, we get

= 13 * sin(55deg)

= 13 * 0.81

= 10.53

⇒ 10.53m/s
