    Projectile motion of a flicked ball

    Could you show me how to actually do the problem (e.g: the equation I would have to use)?

    Projectile motion of a flicked ball

    Isn't there an easier way to solve it w/o using the quadratic formula? (I'm not allowed to use a calculator during the exam)

    Projectile motion of a flicked ball

    So I looked at the site and this is what I did: ok so I got part a. I didn't get part b. What I did was solve for t first: Y=Yo+ VoyT + aT^2/2 Y= 1.2m + 1.2(got this from 2.4sin30)t + (-9.8)(t^2)/2 t+t^2 = -1.2x2/9.8 -1.24t = 1 t= 0.80 Then I used t to solve for ax: Vx=Vox+at...

    How to Calculate Time and Displacement for a Ballistic Cart Launch

    Can't believe I couldn't do it before, I think I was just over thinking it. Thank you! :D

    Projectile motion of a flicked ball

    Really can't figure this out by dividing x and y. The only way i can do it is with equations that use quadratics and I can't do that in my head for a test were I'm not allowed a calculator.Please help, Thank you! You flick a ball from a tabletop, so that the ball lands on the floor 1.20 m...

    How to Calculate Time and Displacement for a Ballistic Cart Launch

    Hi, I've tried to figure this out but I just can't! Please help me understand how to work it out? A ballistic cart is a wheeled cart that can launch a ball in a direction perpendicular to the way the cart moves and can then catch the ball again if it falls back down on the cart. Holding the...
