Also this is review for my final and we learned it a while back, I'm taking a practice test and need to get this question rightBrady Aucoin said:We don't go by the textbook, she teaches us with labs and stuff, there are several equations but none of them fit

What happens to Warren after he leaves the cannon? Without knowing that, you can't determine what Warren's initial launch velocity was.Brady Aucoin said:Homework Statement
Warren weights 70 kg and is shot out of a cannon at 25 degrees above the horizontal. the cannon barrel tip is 1.34m above the ground and the cannon has a mass of 203kg.

I don't even know[/B]The Attempt at a Solution
I think that this problem is missing some info, or I'm really bad at physics[/B]
If that is the complete problem statement, the problem does not make sense.Brady Aucoin said:Warren weights 70 kg and is shot out of a cannon at 25 degrees above the horizontal. the cannon barrel tip is 1.34m above the ground and the cannon has a mass of 203kg.
What is Warren's initial launch velocity?
Projectile motion cannon shot is a type of motion that occurs when an object, such as a cannonball, is launched into the air and follows a curved path due to the force of gravity.
The trajectory of a projectile motion cannon shot is affected by the initial velocity, launch angle, and the force of gravity.
Air resistance, also known as drag, can impact the motion of a cannon shot by slowing it down and altering its trajectory. This is why projectiles with less surface area, such as bullets, travel farther than objects with larger surface areas, such as feathers.
No, a cannon shot will never achieve a perfect parabolic trajectory due to the effects of air resistance and the force of gravity. However, with precise calculations and ideal conditions, the trajectory can be very close to a parabola.
The height of the cannon does not affect the motion of a projectile as long as the initial velocity and launch angle remain the same. The only factor that affects the trajectory is the force of gravity.
