@Vocaloid @dude

Shadow:

Tag me when you are back online.

zarkam21:

Here @Shadow

@Vocaloid

Vocaloid:

horizontal component is velocity * cos(theta) vertical is velocity * sin(theta)

zarkam21:

8.3 * cos(27)=

Vocaloid:

good now evaluate that

zarkam21:

7.4

Vocaloid:

good, now keep going w/ the vertical component

zarkam21:

8.3 * sin(27)

Vocaloid:

good, evaluate that

zarkam21:

3.77

zarkam21:

are there any units

Vocaloid:

these are velocities so the units are...?

zarkam21:

m/s

Vocaloid:

good

Vocaloid:

use the first kinematic equation to find the time for c)

zarkam21:

v=8.3+(9.8)(

Vocaloid:

we are only interested in the velocity in the vertical direction so use the vertical component of velocity as v initial

zarkam21:

so 3.77

Vocaloid:

yes remember, at the peak of a curve the velocity is 0 using this information, solve for t

zarkam21:

3.77=0+(9.8)(8.3)

Vocaloid:

the initial velocity is the vertical component of velocity the final velocity is 0 because we are ending at the top of the curve

Vocaloid:

when you set up an equation, the variable you are solving for is left as a variable so you have something to solve for

Vocaloid:

so, since we are solving for t, your equation must have t as a variable not a number

zarkam21:

0=3.77+(9.8)t

Vocaloid:

good (just use -9.8 since the acceleration is downward) 0 = 3.77 + (-9.8)t solve for t

zarkam21:

0.38

zarkam21:

m/s

Vocaloid:

what are the units of time?

zarkam21:

oh never mind

Vocaloid:

still there?

zarkam21:

Yes

zarkam21:

that would be my final answer right

Vocaloid:

what are the units of time?

zarkam21:

seconds

Vocaloid:

good so 0.38 seconds

zarkam21:

cool now for d

Vocaloid:

use equation 3 to find the vertical distance remember you must use the vertical component of the initial velocity and a as -g

zarkam21:

3.77+1/2(-9.8)t

Vocaloid:

t^2 not t

Vocaloid:

plus we already solved for t (0.38 seconds) so you can plug that in for t

zarkam21:

3.77+1/2(-9.8)(0.38)

Vocaloid:

3.77 + (1/2)(-9.8)(0.38)^2 ---> then evaluate this

zarkam21:

3.06

Vocaloid:

good, so that's the max height

Vocaloid:

e) total time for a parabolic projection is time to the height * 2 so take the answer from part c) and double it

zarkam21:

0.76

Vocaloid:

good for f) we only need to consider the horizontal velocity so horizontal velocity = horizontal distance/time, solve for distance

zarkam21:

so um 7.4

Vocaloid:

the horizontal component is 8.3cos(27) m/s the time is 0.76 seconds solve for distance

zarkam21:

0.76*8.9(cos)27

Vocaloid:

good, now evaluate that

zarkam21:

6.03

Vocaloid:

you accidentally typed 8.9 instead of 8.3

Vocaloid:

try this 0.76* 8.3 * cos(27)

zarkam21:

5.62

Vocaloid:

good

zarkam21:

that would be m/s

Vocaloid:

"how far" what units would this be?

zarkam21:

m

Vocaloid:

good m

zarkam21:

for d it would be m/s and e seconds right?

Vocaloid:

"maximum height"

zarkam21:

m

Vocaloid:

good, e is still seconds
