An animation shows a hot-air balloon. The x and y components of the instantaneous velocity of the balloon are shown in the data table. View the animation and answer the following questions.
Start Animation
a) What is the speed of the hot-air balloon when it is at its maximum height?
speed = m/s
b) What is the speed of the hot-air balloon when it is at t = 60 s
c) What is the angle (with respect to the horizontal) of the velocity vector for the hot-air balloon when it is at t = 60 s
angle = ° with respect to the horizontal
d) What is x-component of the average acceleration of the balloon from t=5 s to t=45 s?
aave x = m/s2
e) What is y-component of the average acceleration of the balloon from t=5 s to t=45 s?
aave y = m/s2
f) What is the magnitude of the average acceleration from t=5 s to t=45 s?
= m/s2
g) What angle does the average acceleration from t=5 s to t=45 s make with the horizontal?
h) What is the magnitude of the average acceleration of the balloon from t = 100 s to t = 150 s?
