Calculating Marble's Fall from a Table Height
Homework Statement A marble is accelerated to a horizontal velocity of 0.50 m/s by rolling it down a small ramp. The marble rolls off the table, which is 0.78 m high. As it falls, it hits a barrier on the way down. If the barrier is 0.15 m from the edge of the table, at what height from the...- rr96

Basic Kinematics Problem -- A plane flies North with a crosswind
[b]1. A plane is aimed north and is traveling 851 km/h. A wind blows the plane from 40° S of E at 36 km/h. What is the plane’s resultant velocity? [b]2. I think the answer is 828.3 km/h at 88.1° East of North but I am not sure. Ay= 851 Bx= cosθ cos40=x/36 x=27.6 By=sinθ...- rr96
