Kinematics of Constant acceleration word problem
Thanks for pointing out the initial values of x and v and using g instead of a, I guess I forgot to type out those values. I have been trying to do that but am having no luck. The equations i was given were x = x_initial + V_initial * t + (1/2) * a * t^2 V = V_initial + a * t V^2 =...- pistolpete333

Kinematics of Constant acceleration word problem
So the problem is: a 1000 kg rocket is fired straight up, a 100 kg rocket is fired straight up with a constant acceleration for 16 seconds. It then stops accelerating and 20 seconds after launch reaches a height of 5100 m. Ignore air resistance. Find the acceleration of the rocket for the...- pistolpete333

Why Does My Calculation of h(z) = Re(z) / Im(z) Yield -12i Instead of 12?
Wow that was pretty obvious. I knew I was messing something up, thanks guys- pistolpete333

Why Does My Calculation of h(z) = Re(z) / Im(z) Yield -12i Instead of 12?
Hi, so for a homework problem I have to evaluate these complex functions. The one I am having trouble on is: evaluate h(z) = Re(z) / Im(z) where z = (5-2i) / (2 - i) The answer is in the back of the book, which says that the solution is 12, however I keep getting -12i for my answer. I...- pistolpete333
