The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem step by step, we will analyze the projectile motion based on the information provided. ### Step 1: Understanding the Problem We know that after 1 second, the projectile makes an angle of 45° with the horizontal, and after 2 seconds, it is moving horizontally. We need to find the magnitude of the initial velocity and the angle of projection. ### Step 2: Define the Initial Velocity Components Let the initial velocity be \( u \) and the angle of projection be \( \theta \). - The horizontal component of the initial velocity is: \[ u_x = u \cos \theta \] - The vertical component of the initial velocity is: \[ u_y = u \sin \theta \] ### Step 3: Analyze the Velocity After 1 Second After 1 second, the velocity components are: - Horizontal velocity (remains constant): \[ v_x = u_x = u \cos \theta \] - Vertical velocity after 1 second (considering gravity): \[ v_y = u_y - g \cdot t = u \sin \theta - g \cdot 1 = u \sin \theta - 10 \] Since the projectile makes a 45° angle with the horizontal: \[ v_x = v_y \] Thus, we have: \[ u \cos \theta = u \sin \theta - 10 \quad \text{(1)} \] ### Step 4: Analyze the Velocity After 2 Seconds After 2 seconds, the vertical component of the velocity becomes zero (the projectile is moving horizontally): \[ v_y = u_y - g \cdot t = u \sin \theta - g \cdot 2 = u \sin \theta - 20 = 0 \] From this, we can express: \[ u \sin \theta = 20 \quad \text{(2)} \] ### Step 5: Substitute Equation (2) into Equation (1) From equation (2): \[ u \sin \theta = 20 \] Substituting this into equation (1): \[ u \cos \theta = 20 - 10 = 10 \quad \text{(3)} \] ### Step 6: Solve for \( u \) and \( \theta \) Now we have two equations: 1. \( u \sin \theta = 20 \) 2. \( u \cos \theta = 10 \) We can find \( u \) by squaring both equations and adding them: \[ (u \sin \theta)^2 + (u \cos \theta)^2 = 20^2 + 10^2 \] \[ u^2 (\sin^2 \theta + \cos^2 \theta) = 400 + 100 \] Since \( \sin^2 \theta + \cos^2 \theta = 1 \): \[ u^2 = 500 \quad \Rightarrow \quad u = \sqrt{500} = 10\sqrt{5} \approx 22.36 \, \text{m/s} \] ### Step 7: Find the Angle \( \theta \) Now, we can find \( \theta \) using the ratios of the components: \[ \tan \theta = \frac{u \sin \theta}{u \cos \theta} = \frac{20}{10} = 2 \] Thus, \[ \theta = \tan^{-1}(2) \] ### Final Results The magnitude of the initial velocity is approximately \( 22.36 \, \text{m/s} \) and the angle of projection is \( \tan^{-1}(2) \). ---
