While performing the projectile experiment, a group found the
launch speed to be 504 cm/s. The projectile launcher was then
inclined at 25 so the launch point was 26.5 cm above the table. A
hoop was placed 75.0 cm away.
a) How long does did it take the projectile to travel 75.0 cm?
b) What height above the table was the hoop placed at so that the ball went through it?
c) What was the velocity (in unit vector notation) of the ball as it went through the hoop?
Initial velocity, U = 504 cm/s
Initial horizontal velocity, Ux = U*cos25 = 504 * cos 25 = 456.78
cm/s
Initial vertical velocity, Uy = U*sin25 = 504 * sin 25 = 213
cm/s
a) Time to reach 75 cm
In horizontal direction, distance = 75 cm
constant speed = 456.78 cm/s
time taken = 75 / 456.78 = 0.164 s
b) In vertical direction:
Uy = 213 cm/s
acceleration, g = -981 cm/s^2
time, t = 0.164 s
Displacement, s = ut + 1/2 gt^2 = (213*0.164) - (0.5 * 981 *
0.164^2) = 21.74 cm
Thus, the hoop is placed 21.74 cm above the projectile
launcher.
Distance of hoop from the table = 26.5 + 21.74 = 48.24
cm
c) Final horizontal velocity, Vx = Ux = 456.78 cm/s
Final vertical velocity, Vy = Uy + at = 213 +
(-981)*(0.164) = 52.12 cm/s
Thus, final velocity in vector notation =(
456.78 i + 52.12 j ) cm/s

An object's position is given by r(t) = (150-t2 + 1/12t3)i + (200+5t-2.5t2, + 1/18t3)j where t is in seconds and r is in m. Determine the object's velocity at t = 4.0 s. Determine the object's acceleration any time t. The orbital speed of a satellite orbiting Mars at an altitude of 1.06 times 10'm above the surface was measured to be 1.75 km/s.

Experimental technique 5. [1pt] Which of the following statements are true for this experiment? E.g., enter AB. If none are true, enter N. You have 4 tries. Everyone must wear safety glasses. For each launch angle, the projectile range is measured for one speed setting. Never look into the barrel of the launcher when it is loaded. The launch angle θ measured using the plumb line is the angle of the launcher with respect to the vertical. The projectile is...

THE EXPERIMENT The speed "." of a ball as it leaves the spring gun will be measured by projecting the ball horizontally (0-0) from a table top at a distance H above the floor. The gun is then elevated at a known angle 8. The position of the target is calculated using the measured value of v. calculated time of flight, and the equations of motion. A successful prediction with the projectile hitting the target means that the following concepts...
