Answer:
Final value of horizontal component velocity will be -3.11 m/sec
Explanation:
We have given initial velocity of the projectile u = 7.1 miles/hour
We know that 1 miles = 1609 m
Angle of projection [tex]\Theta =6^{\circ}[/tex]
And 1 hour = 3600 sec
So [tex]7.1miles/hour=\frac{7\times 1609m}{3600sec}=3.128m/sec[/tex]
Now initial value of horizontal component [tex]u_{xi}=ucos\Theta =3.128cos6=3.11m/sec[/tex]
Now final value of horizontal component [tex]u_{xf}==-u_{xi}=-3.11m/sec[/tex]
