A submarine launched Ballistic Missile (SLBM) is fired from a distance of 3000 km. If the earth is considered flat and the angle of launch is 45° with horizontal, find the time taken by SLBM to hit the target and the velocity with which the missile is fired.
(Ans: 5.42 km s⁻¹, 13 min)
Given:
Range = R = 3000 km = 3 x10⁶ m
Angle = 𝞱 = 45°
Vale of g = 9.8 m s⁻²
To Find:
Time of flight = t = ?
Initial velocity of Missile = vi = ?
Solution:
Here we have fined the time initial velocity vi first so using formula of range of projectile
Using the formula of Range of projectile
R = v2isin2θg
or
vi = √Rgsin2θ
by putting the corresponding values
vi = √3x10⁶mx9.8ms-2sin2x45°
vi = √29.4x10⁶m2s-2sin90°
vi = √29.4x10⁶m2s-21
vi = √29.4x10⁶m2s-2
vi = 5.385 x10³ m s⁻¹
or
vi = 5.4 km s⁻¹ -----------Ans (1).
Now the formula to find the total time of flight of a projectile is given by;
T = 2visinθg
T = (2x5.4x10³ms⁻¹)sin45°9.8ms⁻²
T = (10.77ms⁻¹)(0.707)9.8ms⁻²
T = 0.779 x10³ s
or
T = 779 s
T = 12.98 min
T = 13 m ----------------Ans.
Thus the time of flight of the missile is 13 min
Using the formula of Range of projectile
R = v2isin2θg
or
vi = √Rgsin2θ
by putting the corresponding values
vi = √29.4x10⁶m2s-2sin90°
vi = √29.4x10⁶m2s-21
vi = √29.4x10⁶m2s-2
vi = 5.385 x10³ m s⁻¹
or
vi = 5.4 km s⁻¹ -----------Ans (1).
T = 2visinθg
T = (2x5.4x10³ms⁻¹)sin45°9.8ms⁻²
T = (10.77ms⁻¹)(0.707)9.8ms⁻²
T = 0.779 x10³ s
or
T = 779 s
T = 12.98 min
T = 13 m ----------------Ans.
