You buy a plastic dart gun, and being a clever physics student you decide to do a quick calculation to find its maximum horizontal range. You shoot the gun straight up, and it takes 4.0 ss for the dart to land back at the barrel. Part A What is the maximum horizontal range of your gun?
We want to find the coefficient of restitution e between the ball and the floor. We will be able to measure the time of flight between subsequent bounces, but not the velocities before and after each impact. Question 1 a. Using the kinematics equation for position, find a relationship between the time of flight tn and the velocity of the ball after the nth bounce. You should obtain a quadratic equation that has two solutions for the time tm, but only one of them represents the time of flight. b. Using the kinematics equation for velocity and the relationship determined in the previous step, find the relationship between the velocity right after the nth bounce and the velocity right before the (n +1)th bounce? c. Given your answers to the previous parts of this question and the definition of €, find the coefficient of restitution e in terms of the subsequent times of flight tn and tr+1.

A A ball is launched at 100 m/s at 75° to the horizontal from a 40m tall building. How high does the ball go, how far away does the ball land from the launch site, and what is its velocity in both the x-direction and in the y-direction at impact, and the resultant velocity vector at impact?
