Projectile Launch - Using Earth's Radius
1. What is the launch speed of a projectile that rises vertically above the Earth to an altitude equal to 14 Rearth before coming to rest momentarily? Homework Equationssqrt{2GM(\\frac{1}{R_e}-\\frac{1}{14R_e})} The Attempt at a Solution G= 6.67x10^11 M=5.97x10^24 R_e=6.37x10^6 I get 2988...- bustin

Block pushed up 35degree incline (frictionless)
1. a block is pushed up a 35 degree incline (no friction) by an applied force. If F= 20N and m= 2.0kg, what is the magnitude of the resulting acceleration of the block? 2. not sure? f=ma 3. don't know where to start. It has been a long time since physics- bustin
