    Calculus Physics Artillery Problem (Calculus BC)

    New Revelation: on Requirement #2. B. to understand t you must solve for x and y rather than trying to figure out t initially.

    Calculus Physics Artillery Problem (Calculus BC)

    Requirement #2. C. \alpha for maximum elevation is 90o because when θ is -\pi/2 radians the vertical velocity is achieved because \pi/2 is a vertical line. The Max is at t = 30.59149 seconds at a height of 4588.72296.

    Calculus Physics Artillery Problem (Calculus BC)

    Found Requirement #2. B. Maximum Range is at angle of 3\pi/16 radians and is at the point (58428.86455, -22944.96145) Time is 112.43488 seconds after initial firing. Need help with the confirmation of the time function. I have solved for it twice and reached the same results. However the time...

    Calculus Physics Artillery Problem (Calculus BC)

    Homework Statement In a paper presented in 1686, Edmond Halley summarized the laws of gravity and projectile motion. These laws have since been applied to military gunnery, especially in the fields of land artillery and naval gunfire. Several problems of projectile motion were posed related...
