Question

A stone at the end of a sling is whirled in a vertical circle of radius 1.10 m at a constant speed v0 = 1.60 m/s as in Figure P4.57. The center of the string is 1.50 m above the ground.

(a) What is the range of the stone if it is released when the sling is inclined at 30.0° with the horizontal at A?

Answer 1

yo = 1.5 +1.1sin30
Vxi = 1.6cos60
Vyi = 1.6sin60

Answer 2

I'm so confused by this. It wants to know how far the stone would go if you released it with the sling at 30 degrees?

Answer 3

yes you are right earaujo

Answer 4

use your kinematics to find range ( delta x)
