The correct Answer is:
To find the velocity of the object after 2 seconds, we will analyze the motion in both the x and y directions separately. ### Step 1: Identify the initial velocity components The initial velocity vector is given as: \[ \vec{v_0} = 15 \hat{i} + 20 \hat{j} \] From this, we can identify the components of the initial velocity: - \(v_{0x} = 15 \, \text{m/s}\) (horizontal component) - \(v_{0y} = 20 \, \text{m/s}\) (vertical component) ### Step 2: Analyze the motion in the x direction In the x direction, there is no acceleration acting on the object (assuming no air resistance). Therefore, the horizontal velocity remains constant: \[ v_x = v_{0x} = 15 \, \text{m/s} \] ### Step 3: Analyze the motion in the y direction In the y direction, the object is subject to gravitational acceleration, which acts downwards. The acceleration due to gravity is: \[ g = 10 \, \text{m/s}^2 \] The velocity in the y direction after time \(t\) can be calculated using the equation: \[ v_y = v_{0y} - g \cdot t \] Substituting the known values: \[ v_y = 20 \, \text{m/s} - (10 \, \text{m/s}^2 \cdot 2 \, \text{s}) = 20 - 20 = 0 \, \text{m/s} \] ### Step 4: Combine the velocity components After 2 seconds, the velocity components are: - \(v_x = 15 \, \text{m/s}\) - \(v_y = 0 \, \text{m/s}\) Thus, the resultant velocity vector after 2 seconds is: \[ \vec{v} = 15 \hat{i} + 0 \hat{j} = 15 \hat{i} \] ### Final Answer The velocity of the object after 2 seconds is: \[ \vec{v} = 15 \hat{i} \, \text{m/s} \] ---
