OpenStudy (micheletheresam):

@perl hey there lifesaver

OpenStudy (micheletheresam):

@perl I KNOW YOU SEE THIS

OpenStudy (perl):

we can use the magnificent projectile equation

OpenStudy (micheletheresam):

yes?

OpenStudy (perl):

i have to dig this up, one moment

OpenStudy (micheletheresam):

Perl you don't understand I HATE PHYSICS

OpenStudy (perl):

why ?

OpenStudy (perl):

physics seems like math with real objects like balls and spaceships

OpenStudy (micheletheresam):

My teacher makes it so unlikable

OpenStudy (perl):

x = vo * cos(theta) * t x = v0 * cos(25)*t x = 5.8 meters. you know what, let me just the magnificent projectile equation

OpenStudy (perl):

this equation combines y and x into one equation

OpenStudy (perl):

here is the magnificent equation http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trajectory_of_a_projectile#Conditions_at_an_arbitrary_distance_x

OpenStudy (perl):

since xo = 0, we will use y = x* tan(theta) - g*x^2 / [2* vo^2*cos^2(theta)]

OpenStudy (perl):
