Finding Time, Distance, and Velocity
I understand how you get the horizontal component but how did you arrive to the vertical one. -300 m cleared in 7.82 s is -38.3 m/s. Now -38.3 x 2 = -76.6. But what equation did you use?- Bottomsouth

Density of the sun as a white dwarf.
D = 1.99 x 10^33 / (4/3)(3.14)(7.5 x 10^8)^3 = 6.338 x 10^23 Seems to be wrong.- Bottomsouth

Density of the sun as a white dwarf.
Homework Statement In about 5 billion years, at the end of its lifetime, our sun will end up as a white dwarf, having about the same mass as it does now, but reduced to about 15,000 km in diameter.What will be its density at that stage? g/cm^3 Homework Equations D=m/v 4/3(3.14)r^3...- Bottomsouth

Kinetic Energy of a wood on a spring?
Homework Statement When a piece of wood is pressed against a spring and compresses the spring by 4.00cm , the wood gains a maximum kinetic energy K when it is released. How much kinetic energy (in terms of K) would the piece of wood gain if the spring were compressed 20.0 cm instead? K_2...- Bottomsouth

Solving a Physics Mystery: Initial Speed & Height of Ball
Vx=x/t then 0=Vyit = 1/2gt^2 Vcos33*t = ? Vsin33 - (1/2)gt = 0 I think I am in the right track, still alittle lost.- Bottomsouth

Solving a Physics Mystery: Initial Speed & Height of Ball
I believe I will be using components of initial velocity. Still alittle lost on how to proceed. U0y = U0sin(33) U0x = U0cos(33)- Bottomsouth
