For further thought:
-
How far does the projectile land from the base of the building?
What would be the final speed if the projectile were thrown straight down with a
speed of 25 m/s instead of being up at an angle of 30o?
What is the meaning of the negative time in the solution?
Can you solve for the final speed without using the quadratic formula?
Can you solve for the time of flight without using the quadratic formula?
Centripetal acceleration
An object moving in a circle at constant speed is said to undergo uniform circular motion.
Even though the speed is constant, its direction is changing – thus, it is accelerating. The
acceleration is directed toward the center of the circle and is referred to as radial or
centripetal acceleration. The magnitude of this acceleration is given by
v1
v2
.
ac 

The diagram to the right shows how this formula
is obtained for uniform circular motion.
Because of the change in direction, the velocity
changes by an amount v which is directed
toward the center of the circle. From the
similarity of the triangles formed by sides s
and r and by v and v, we have

Combined tangential and centripetal acceleration
An object can also have a component of acceleration tangent
to its path if its speed is changing. This component if given
by

dv

If the object is also moving in a curved path as its speed is changing, then the total
acceleration is given by
a  ac  a t
Since these two components of the acceleration are mutually perpendicular, then the
magnitude of the total acceleration is
dv

a  at  ac , where at 

Relative Velocity
The velocity of an object (A) depends on the coordinate system in which it is measured.
If two systems, B and C, are moving with respect to each other, then velocities transform
as
v AC  v AB  v BC

Example: A boat can travel with a speed of 4 m/s in still water.
