Problem:
A flare was fired straight up at a speed of 25 m/s from the bed of a truck traveling along a level road at a speed of 15 m/s.
a. Assuming the flare landed back in the bed of the truck, how much time was the flare in the air?
b. How far horizontally did the flare travel before...
because i haven't learned how to use energy in problems like this i would need some guidance or a different way to solve the problem that is more commonly used for motion projectile problems
