A projectile is launched straight down an inclined plane as shown in he figure below. Show that the greatest downhill range (the distance from the initial position to the point where the projectile hits the ground) is achieved when the initial velocity vector bisects the angle ZAOR between the vertical line and the plane.

Sweden and Norway are at war over who makes the best pickled herring. You are in charge of a Swedish artillery unit that is trying to shoot at some Norwegians located 1000 meters away at the same height as you are. If we neglect the friction of the air, the cannon ball follows a parabolic trajectory; as you certainly recall from prior courses, a cannon ball travels a distance L = V²sin(2a) 9 where V is the initial velocity, a is the angle of the cannon barrel, and g = 9.8 m/s² is the gravitational acceleration. You realize that you only have two options for how to shoot. Option (I) is to use 1 bag of gun powder, which produces an initial velocity of exactly V₁ = 105 m/s, and to try to set the angle to aI,nominal = 39 degree. Option (II) is to use 2 bags of gun powder, which produces exactly VII = 137 m/s, and to try to set the angle to aII,nominal = 15 degree. If you set the angles exactly to the nominal ones, compute the traveling distances. L₁ = LII = The problem is that the cannon…
Suppose that the system block plus cart is moving with constant speed v along the inclined plane of angle 0 as shown in the figure below. What is the minimum angle 0 for which the block will stay at rest with respect to the cart?
A hunter observed a bird flying overhead and estimated the His rifle is If he fires at height at 15 m and its speed at 20 m/second. capable of a muzzle velocity of 48 m/sec. the instant the bird is directly overhead, at what angle should he incline his rifle in order to hit it? How many meters from his position will the bird hit the ground assum- ing that the weight of the bullet compared to the weight of the bird is negligible?
A rocket fired vertically up from the north pole achieves a velocity of 25 000 km/h at an altitude of 339 km when its fuel is exhausted. Calculate the additional vertical height h reached by the rocket before it starts its descent back to the earth. The coasting phase of its flight occurs above the atmosphere. Consult Fig. 1/1 in choosing the appropriate value of gravitational acceleration and use the mean radius of the earth from Table D/2. (Note: Launching from the earth's pole avoids considering the effect of the earth's rotation.) Answer: h= i km
