    Rectilinear Motion/Position Function - Find the distance?

    Right- and I originally just calculated the distance based on the velocity and the time. But it's also a factor of the angle it's shot at, so that can't be right. Since it's not going in a strait line, the distance is dependent on the angle it was launched from. (There's an extra credit...

    Rectilinear Motion/Position Function - Find the distance?

    Hi! I'm pretty sure I got the first four parts right, but I'm lost on the last one. 1. Homework Statement : An arrow is shot from an elevation of 100 meters at a 30-degree angle. It leaves the bow with a speed of 50 meters/second. 1) Find the initial vertical component of velocity. 2)...
