    Can a Spring-Propelled Mass Clear the Gap on a Frictionless Ramp?

    Since there's no Work involved because it is on a frictionless I will use PEs=KE+PEg

    Can a Spring-Propelled Mass Clear the Gap on a Frictionless Ramp?

    to find the velocity could I set up an equation like: W+PEs=KE I'm calculating now...hopefully it works

    Can a Spring-Propelled Mass Clear the Gap on a Frictionless Ramp?

    L is the frictionless ramp of length and yes the speeds will be in m/s. the energy in this are well Spring, Kinetic and work. Could Gravitational Energy take place as the box goes up from the spring?

    Can a Spring-Propelled Mass Clear the Gap on a Frictionless Ramp?

    The picture below shows a block of mass 5.22kg held against a spring of spring constant compressed by a distance d = 28.3cm on a frictionless ramp of length . The ramp has an angle of 20°. A distance x = 1.16m separates the ramp from a landing area that is at the same height as the top of the...

    How Do You Calculate Projectile Velocity at Different Times?

    Vy= 39.3sin(56.2) Vy= 32.66 m/s Vx=39.3 m/s cos(56.2) Vx=21.86 this is what I got so far. I'm trying to work on the Pythagoras theorem right now. But I'm not sure what I'm suppose to use

    How Do You Calculate Projectile Velocity at Different Times?

    to determine Voy and Vox and since I have a angle could I use the cos sin and tan and the pythagorean theorem to determine the distance traveled?

    How Do You Calculate Projectile Velocity at Different Times?

    I'm sorry I don't know I'm thinking the equations we could use for the problem would be Vy=Vox+at y-y0=1/2(Vy+Voy)t 2a(y-y0) = Vy2-Voy2 y-y0=Voyt+1/2at2 x-x0=Voxt these are the equations I'm suppose to use

    How Do You Calculate Projectile Velocity at Different Times?

    relevant equations like: the vertical (y) picture for this setup which I came up with Y = Voy = 39.3 m/s a = -9.81 m/s2 t = Y = Vy = But that's all I got.

    How Do You Calculate Projectile Velocity at Different Times?

    I would like to better understand how to work Velocity of a Projectile object. I have homework due tonight but I'm going to turn it in late to have a better understanding. Question: A projectile is launched with an initial velocity of 39.3 m/s at 56.2° above the horizontal. Calculate the...

    How Fast Does a Rock Accelerate Past a Window?

    1. A rock is dropped off the top of a building. On the way down, the rock passes a window. The window is known to be tall and the stone takes 0.154 to fall past the window. 1. What is the velocity of the rock at the bottom of the window? 2. How much time was necessary from the instant the rock...
