Homework Statement
The goal of my lab was to measure the ratio of charge to mass for electrons (e/m) and the approximate ambient magnetic field of the Earth (BE). I have come up with what is the required equation (my TA confirmed this) but I am having trouble linearizing it.
y=mx+b...
Thanks for the quick reply!
I substituted all my v0=100 and simplified to get this:
-0.5*-9.81(16/1+(tan(theta))^2) + 400*tan(theta) -150=0
Edit:
I'm not sure entirely how I would simplify further.
Homework Statement
A cannon is fired at a target on a cliff that is 400 meters away. The cliff has an elevation of 150 meters relative to the cannon. The initial velocity of the cannonball is 100 m/s. Ignoring wind resistance calculate the two possible angles and their respective times.
