Answer:
<em>The penny will hit the ground at 6.39 seconds</em>
Explanation:
<u>Free Fall</u>
The penny is dropped from a height of y=200 m. The equation of the height on a free-fall motion is given by:
Where , and t is the time.
Solving for t:
Using the value y=200:
t=6.39 sec
The penny will hit the ground at 6.39 seconds
Here, you need to use your "Protractor" as it is given in the question, but we can calculate the value with the help of our mathematical calculation too:
[ Protractor can be use only in real life, not here ]
Draw an imaginary line from initial position to final position.
Now, In that triangle, tan x = P/B
tan x = 1.4 / 2
tan x = 0.70
x = tan⁻¹ (0.70)
x = 35 [ tan 35 = 0.70 ]
In short, Your Answer would be 35 degrees
Hope this helps!
