Homework Statement
A box of Cheerios (mass mC = 1.1 kg) and a box of Wheaties (mass mW = 2.9 kg) are accelerated across a horizontal surface by a horizontal force applied to the Cheerios box. The magnitude of the frictional force on the Cheerios box is 2.0 N, and the magnitude of the...
Sometimes they put more applicational problems instead of actual computing it was just a total guess. But Newtons law says Fnet=mg-Fp=ma correct? Is that the equation for this type of problem?

Ok so I found Ymax by taking my Voy^2/2g. I then found the fences height by V^2=Voy^2+2gDeltaY. I am however, stuck on the last part, I know that Delta X is going to be the total distance minus the distance given in the problem of 95.8m. But in order to find total distance I need t total but...

A baseball is hit at ground level. The ball reaches its maximum height above ground level 3.5 s after being hit. Then 3.0 s after reaching its maximum height, the ball barely clears a fence that is 95.8 m from where it was hit. Assume the ground is level. What maximum height above ground...
