A dart is thrown horizontally at a speed of 12 m/s at the bull's-eye of a dartboard 2.7 m away. How far below the intended target does the dart hit (in m)?

Respuesta :

The distance below the intended target the dart hit is 0.26 m.

Time of motion of the dart

The time taken for the  dart to fall is calculated as follows;

X = Vxt

where;

  • X is the horizontal displacement
  • Vx is the horizontal speed
  • t is time of motion

t = X/Vx

t = 2.7/12

t = 0.23 seconds

Height of fall of the dart

h = vt + ¹/₂gt²

where;

  • v is initial vertical velocity = 0

h = ¹/₂gt²

h = ¹/₂(9.8)(0.23²)

h = 0.26 m
