A rock is thrown upward at an angle of 50 degree with respect to the horizontal As it risesm its horizontal component of velocity?

If you ignore the effect of the air grabbing at it and only figure in gravity, then the horizontal component of velocity is constant, from the time the stone leaves your hand until the time it hits the ground. Makes no difference whether you toss it up, down, horizontal, or on a slant. Also makes no difference whether it's a cannonball, a stone, or a bullet.


When will a stone return to the groun if it is thrown upward with an initial velocity of 16ms?

After just over three and a quarter seconds.


A stone is thrown straight upward and it rises to a height of 20 meters With what speed was it thrown?

6.261 m/s


When a stone is thrown upward at an angle what happens to the vertical component of its velocity as it rises and as it falls?

The vertical component of its velocity increases at the rate of 9.8 meters (32.2 feet) per second downward every second. Without involving numbers, simply the vertical component will first be upward at what ever velocity it is when split from the horizontal velocity, then (after reaching the peak of its height at which velocity is zero) it will be a downward vector that, yes, will increase with acceleration due to gravity (which is where the 9.8 meters per second squared came from)


If a stone fall from the height of 93mwith the initial velocity of 3 mseccalculate the time taken by stone to reach the groundfinalvelocity?

Time taken: 4.06 seconds.Final velocity: 42.8 m per sec.

What will happen when a stone is thrown from a moving train?

Throwing a stone from a moving train involves the same type of calculations as throwing a stone from a stationary platform. The difference is that you now consider the added horizontal velocity imparted by the moving train. If you throw forward, the train's velocity is added to your contribution to the stone. If you throw backward, the train's velocity is subtracted from your contribution to the stone. If you throw sideways, the train's velocity does not alter your contribution to the stone. Whether any of this matters or not depends on friction due to the different air velocities encountered by the stone. Vertical velocity is relatively unchanged by the train's contribution. The stone will still go up (if you include an upward vector in your throw) and it will still go down. The end result is that the stone will hit the ground at some point. That point will be relatively the same in both cases, except for the minor difference due to air velocity.
