The video tutorial explains how to solve a projectile motion problem by breaking down the velocity vector into vertical and horizontal components. It calculates the time the projectile stays in the air using the vertical component and gravity, and then determines the horizontal distance traveled by multiplying the time by the horizontal component. The tutorial assumes negligible air resistance and uses basic trigonometry to solve the problem.

What is the initial velocity of the projectile launched by the rocket?

• 5 meters per second

• 10 meters per second

• 20 meters per second

• 15 meters per second

At what angle is the projectile launched from the horizontal?

• 30 degrees

• 60 degrees

• 90 degrees

• 45 degrees

Why is it important to break down the velocity vector into components?

• To simplify calculations by separating vertical and horizontal motions

• To increase the speed of the projectile

• To reduce air resistance

• To change the direction of the projectile

What is the vertical component of the velocity when the angle is 30 degrees?

• 10 meters per second

• 3 meters per second

• 8 meters per second

• 5 meters per second

How long does the projectile stay in the air?

• 1.02 seconds

• 1.5 seconds

• 2 seconds

• 0.5 seconds

What is the horizontal component of the velocity?

• 5 meters per second

• 3 meters per second

• 5 times the square root of 3 meters per second

• 10 meters per second

What assumption is made about air resistance in this problem?

• It increases the velocity

• It is negligible and does not affect the motion

• It decreases the velocity

• It is significant and affects the motion

What is the total horizontal displacement of the projectile?

• 8.83 meters

• 15 meters

• 10 meters

• 5 meters

What trigonometric function is used to find the horizontal component of the velocity?

• Cosine

• Cotangent

• Tangent

• Sine

What is the significance of the angle in determining the components of velocity?

• It changes the mass of the projectile

• It determines the speed of the projectile

• It affects the gravitational force

• It helps in calculating the vertical and horizontal components
