    Projectile Motion Lab vertical/horizontal motion?

    Right, if we set up right triangle for the ramp, 'g' would be the short side. You need to use the angle at which the ramp is elevated and use sin(theta) = g/h to find 'h' as a vector of the ramp.

    Projectile Motion Lab vertical/horizontal motion?

    Okay, so firstly you need to calculate the velocity at which the ball is moving down the ramp. Use v2 = u2 + 2as Since we're talking about a falling object, 'a' turns to 'g' After you find the velocity, you want to find the time it's going to travel from the edge of the table to the floor...
