    Calculating Maximum Elevation of Top Ball After Collision

    Homework Statement Two balls fall one above the other from height h= 5m. The bottom one has m= .1kg and the top one has m= .01kg. What will be the maximum elevation of the TOP ball after the balls hit the floor? Assume that collisions with the floor and between the balls are elastic...

    Calculate Velocity of Skydiver: Mass M, Air Drag Coefficient D

    Calculate velocity of the skydiver of mass M= 80kg as a function of time. The air drag coefficient D= 100g/m = 0.1kg/m. Assume that the skydiver has v=o at t=0. In my book high speed air drag is f=Dv^2. I found Vt= 88.5 m/s with Sqrt(mg/D). BUT this is not the V they are asking for :(...

    Find Initial Angle to Hit Target 100m Away with Rifle at 30deg Angle

    A rifle fires a bullet at 300 m/s at a target that is up on a wall 100 m away. The rifle's line of sight creates a 30 degree angle with the horizon. What initial angle does the rifle need to be directed to hit the target? The formulas I thought I needed are: Vy=ViSIN(30) Here my Vi is...
