Physics 1102 Coordinator: Dr F. Sagala Assignment 2 INSTRUCTIONS 1. This is an individual assignment and should be submitted individually. 2. The assignment consists of 5 questions answer all questions by clearly showing your working methods. 3. Submit either handwritten and scanned or typed answers on LMS by the date of 31st March 2021 7pm Uganda Time. Note you will not be able to upload your solutions past that date. 4. Any form of plagiarism and cheating will not be tolerated. 1. A man walks 6.5km in a direction making an angle of 30o west of south. How far west and south is the man from his starting point. 2. Boats X and Y leave Port Bell at the same time. Boat X travels at 30km/h in a direction 45o west of south, while boat Y travels 30o east of south at 35km/hr. What is the distance between the two Boats 120 minutes after they depart from the port. 3. In the given picture, you see the motion path of cannonball. Find the maximum height it can reach, horizontal distance it covers and total time from the given Information. (The angle between cannonball and horizontal is 53º). 4. A particle starts from the origin at t=0 with a velocity of 15i m/s and moves in the XY plane with a constant acceleration of (2i+4j)m/s2. At the instant the x-coordinate of the particle is 30m. With the help of a sketch, determine the value of its Y coordinate. 5. At t=0, a particle leaves the origin with a velocity of 10m/s in the positive Y direction. Its acceleration is given by a= (4i-3j)m/s2. At the instant the particle reaches its maximum Y coordinate. With the aid of a sketch, how far is the particle from the origin.
