hah a fundy :smile:

maybe this will help Exact question from book: A golfer can hit a golf ball a horizontal distance of over 300 m on a good drive. What maximum height will a 301.5m drive reach if it is launched at an angle of 25.0 degrees to the ground? (Hint: At the top of its flight, the ball's vertical...

can you help me find my mistake. i worked it out to the best of my ability. rearranging displacement of x t = 301.5m / v cos 25 rearranging displacement of y t = -2 ( v sin25) / -9.81 than using t = t -2 ( v sin 25) ( v cos 25) = 301.5 (-9.81) --> V^2 = sqroot [...

I'm having major problems figuring this one out. The question is from the book, yet their are no sample problems and a handful of given formulas. I've played around with the formulas with substitution, etc and I've end up with the wrong answer. Given: Angle of projectile fired and final...
