Question Number 31148 by NECx last updated on 03/Mar/18

A body is projected at an angle  35° with an initial speed of 45m/s.  What is the velocity of the body  after 2s and the angle made with  the horizontal axis? [g=9.81ms^(−2) ]

$${A}\:{body}\:{is}\:{projected}\:{at}\:{an}\:{angle} \\ $$$$\mathrm{35}°\:{with}\:{an}\:{initial}\:{speed}\:{of}\:\mathrm{45}{m}/{s}. \\ $$$${What}\:{is}\:{the}\:{velocity}\:{of}\:{the}\:{body} \\ $$$${after}\:\mathrm{2}{s}\:{and}\:{the}\:{angle}\:{made}\:{with} \\ $$$${the}\:{horizontal}\:{axis}?\:\left[{g}=\mathrm{9}.\mathrm{81}{ms}^{−\mathrm{2}} \right] \\ $$

for the velocity in time t, we have   V(t)=usin θ−gt  v(2)=45sin35 − 9.81×2      =25.81094−19.62       =6.19m/s    then I got confused on seeing angle  made with the horizontal.Please  help. Thanks

u=45 m/s  u_x =45 cos 35°  u_y =45 sin 35°  v_x (t)=u_x   v_y (t)=u_y −gt  v(t)=(√(v_x ^2 +v_y ^2 ))  tan θ(t)=(v_y /v_x )  θ(t)=tan^(−1) ((v_y /v_x ))    at t=2 s:  v_x (2)=45 cos 35°=36.86 m/s  v_y (2)=45 sin 35°−9.81×2=6.19 m/s  v(2)=(√(36.86^2 +6.19^2 ))=37.4 m/s  θ(2)=tan^(−1) ((6.19)/(36.86))=9.5°
