http://goo.gl/DATSi3 check this example question. I don't understand where the "(0.002x)x" come from.

OpenStudy (vincent-lyon.fr):

derivation of x² with respect to time gives 2.x.dx/dt so 0.001 becomes 0.002 because of the factor 2 that appeared in the derivation process.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ahhh, derivation... didn't see tha coming :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

now I don't understand how the Vx appear

OpenStudy (vincent-lyon.fr):

\(v_x\) , or horizontal component of the velocity, is the same as the \(dx/dt\) that appears in the equation. Whereas \(v_y\) = 10 m/s is given in the question.

Ah... right, part of calculus. I think I get it now. I need to relearn my calculus again. Thanks for your help, Mr. Vincent. :)
