What's the Minimum Speed for a Stunt Car Jump at 10° Angle?
I don't know really, I was hoping someone could help me with it because I was 99% sure I was wrong.- Dylon

What's the Minimum Speed for a Stunt Car Jump at 10° Angle?
Alright, so what I just did was find the real initial velocities (X = 19.7m/s, Y = 3.47m/s) Then with that and also assuming the ending velocity is 0 (since it will be at the max height it will not be moving up or down) I did Vy = Viy + (a)(t) or with my numbers, 0 = 3.47 + (-9.8)(t) and got t =...- Dylon

I think, not sure, that the vertical velocity is -5.488m/s, and the horizontal one is 35.71m/s. Edit: I think those could be wrong, since there's probably going to be a new time with the 10 degree angle.- Dylon

What's the Minimum Speed for a Stunt Car Jump at 10° Angle?
This is my first year taking a Physics class, so this might just be a simple question but I'm stuck. Homework Statement A stunt driver wants to make his car jump over eight cars parked side by side below a horizontal ramp. (a) With what minimum speed must he drive off the horizontal...- Dylon
