Catching a Falling Can: Solving for Acceleration
OK. So if I take the bottom of the triangle to be side A, and the vertical side of the triangle to be B, I can set it up like this: Tan 75 degrees = B/A = Accel. of can in y-direction / Accel. of me in x-direction Then, Accel. of me in x-direction = Accel. of can in y-direction / Tan 75...- Jeramaya
