Construct Vectors with Lengths Proportional to the Horizontal and Vertical Velocities: The images that follow are motion diagrams created based on a video analysis of the ball’s path. Use the fact that the lengths of displacement and velocity vectors are proportional to each other to draw a series of vectors that are proportional to the average x and y-velocity vector components during each 1/15th of a second time interval. Start with Frame 1 in each of the figures that follow. Place the tail of the first velocity vector at the ball’s location in frame 1 and then place the tail of the next vector at the ball’s location in frame 2 and so on.
The diagram shows a bug moving to the left and slowing down.
Notice the velocity vectors above the bug. What is the direction of
the acceleration vector?
Left
O Right
Acceleration is zero
Draw an object moving in a projectile motion. Label the initial velocity, angle, and acceleration and draw arrows showing the direction of the acceleration and velocity along the motion.

Find the distance, measured along the incline, from the launch point to the point when the ball strikes the incline. b. What angle ϕ gives the maximum range, measured along the incline? Ignore air resistance. c. Since there's no air resistance, this is a problem in projectile motion. The goal is to find the point where the ball's parabolic trajectory intersects the incline. It is best to choose the x-axis to be horizontal and direct to the right, the y-axis to be vertical and direct to the up, and the origin to be at the point where the ball is fired. In the projectile equations, the launch angle α0 is measured from the horizontal. What is this angle in terms of (θ) and (ϕ)?arrow_forward
