OK. I understand almost everything I need to know in order to do a convolution problem except how to set up what needs to be integrated. The way my professor does it is:
1) flip the impuse
2) move h(t) over x(t) - we usually do this in 5 different regions
3) for each region the bounds have...
I've gotten this far
acceleration up the slope = .76 m/s^2
length of slope = 288m
velocity at the top of the slope = 20.9 m/s
initial velocity on the x-axis = 23.2 m/s
intial velocity on the y-axis = 4.10 m/s
initial acceleration on the x-axis = 2.42 m/s^2
initial acceleration...
I need help desperatley with this problem.
Sam (65 kg) takes off (from rest) up a 50 m high, 10° frictionless slope on his jet-powered skis. The skis have a thrust of 160 N. He keeps his skis tilted at 10° after becoming airborne. How far does Sam land from the base of the cliff?
I believe...
