The drawing shows an exaggerated view of a rifle that has been 'sighted in' for a 91.4-meter target. If the muzzle speed of the bullet is Vo = 309 m/s, there are the two possible angles 0₁ and 02 between the rifle barrel and the horizontal such that the bullet will hit the target. One of these angles is so large that it is never used in target shooting. Give your answers as (a) the smaller angle and (b) the larger angle. (Hint: The following trigonometric identity may be useful: 2 sine cose = sin 20.) (a) Number (b) Number Units Units 91.4 m O

A car travels due east with a speed of 39.0 km/h. Raindrops are falling at a constant speed vertically with respect to the Earth. The traces of the rain on the side windows of the car make an angle of 61.0° with the vertical. Find the velocity of the rain with respect to the following reference frames. (a) the car (b) the Earth Step 1 RC RE (a) To solve for the velocity of the rain relative to the car each moving relative to the Earth, we use the analogy of two objects moving relative to the Earth, each with constant velocity. Let v be the velocity of the rain relative to the car, V the velocity of the rain relative to the Earth, and VCE the velocity of the car relative to the Earth. Following the pattern of subscripts illustrated in the equation for two objects moving relative to the Earth, VAB = V VAE E-VBE we find that the velocity of the rain relative to the car is v with x- and y-components given by the following equations.
