-- The shot leaves his hand at 15.5 m/s directed 34 degrees above the horizon.
The horizontal component of its velocity is 15.5 cos(34) = about 12.85 m/s .
The vertical component of its velocity is 15.5 sin(34) = about 8.667 m/s .
-- The shot will continue to rise until its vertical velocity is zero. Since its vertical
acceleration is -9.807 m/s2 (g), it rises for 8.667/9.807 = about 0.884 second .
-- Its average speed during that time is (0.5 x 8.667) = about 4.333 m/s , and it
rises (0.884 x 4.333) = about 3.983 metersabove its release height, before it
starts falling. It then has 5.983 meters to fall before it hits the ground.
-- The time needed to fall 5.983 meters from the peak of its arc is
T = sqrt( 2h/g) = about 1.105 second. Added to the 0.884 second that it spent on the way up, that's a total of
(0.884 + 1.105) = about 1.989 seconds that it spends in the air after being
released.
-- Its horizontal progress in that time is (12.85) x (1.989) = about 25.55 meters .
Do you really mean minimum distance? This would be achieved if the projectile went straight up and down, ie 90 deg from horizontal. Maximum distance would be obtained at 45 deg to horizontal.
Depends what the frequency is.
wavelength
That's the 'wavelength'.
"wavelength"
2+2
The horizontal distance. Points of latitude and longitude can't account for elevation.
Gradient= Vertical gain / Horizontal distance Hope this helps ;P
The absolute difference in the vertical direction is zero but the absolute difference in the horizontal direction will be the horizontal distance - which is the distance between the points.
You cannot because you do not know how long before the object falls to the ground and so stops moving.
The answer depends on the context: If you have a distance vector of magnitude V, that is inclined at an angle q to the horizontal, then the horizontal distance is V*cos(q).
Lines of longitude are vertical but they measure horizontal distance(In degrees,not kilometers or miles)between Greenwich Mean Time(GMT) and you so the lines are vertical,not horizontal. However,longitude measures horizontal distance,not vertical distance.
A distance-time graph is created by placing the distance on the vertical axis with the time placed on the horizontal axis. The values can then be plotted using distance traveled on different intervals.
A good definition might be the measurement of the longest horizontal distance of an object (x). Width would be the shorter horizontal distance (y)
It is called the displacement in the horizontal direction.
if the speed is zero then the distance versus time line will be horizontal
The horizontal distance is the straight-line distance between two points on a map without including any extra distance because of following the upward and downward slopes of hills and valleys.
