Answer to Question #73751 in Mechanics | Relativity for Alpha

Question

A spider crawling across a table leaps onto a magazine blocking its path. The initial velocity of the spider
is 0.870 m/s at an angle of 35.0o
above the table, and it lands on the magazine 0.0770 s after leaving the
table. Ignore air resistance. How thick is the magazine? Express your answer in millimeters.

Answer 1

Inclined distance covered =velocity time
0.870 0.0770= 0.06699m
X=thickness of magazine
X=0.06699 ( )
=0.033495
33.495mm
