Physics Experiment Question; Projectile Motion
Hello, I have a question that says' Derive an equation for calculating the theoretical range. I did like half of it, I got t = sqrt[ (2y) / a ] from the kinematic equation ( X = X0 + V0 t + 1/2 a t^2 ). How would I find the theoretical range after this? And how to prove that the...- rumaithya

High School Acceleration Comparison: Basketball vs. Tennis Ball
Different in acceleration? Hello, I'd like to know what's the different between an acceleration of a basketball and the acceleration of a small ball(tennis ball) when we drop the balls... I think they will not be the same, but why? is it because of the weight? -

Significant Figures problem help
Hello, I've found this question in my book and I'm interested to know how to solve this problem. Can anyone help? _____ A sidewalk is to be constructed around a swimming pool that measures (10.0 +- 0.1 )m by (17.0 +- 0.1)m. If the side walk is to measure (1.00 +- 0.01)m wide by (9.0 +- 0.1) cm...- rumaithya

What are the confusing questions about structural I beams and cones?
hello, thanks for replaying. 1) (a) I know that o = m/v and the density is given but I couldn't find the volume from the diagram. that's a weird diagram. I don't see a measurement for depth either. All i know is to find the volume of each rectangle and add them. then solve for the mass...- rumaithya

Undergrad Optimize Positive Number Sum of Number & Reciprocal
thank you. I was thinking about that before.. In the graph it shows that x = +- 1 but x is +1 when it's local minimum, and x is -1 when it's local maximum. So the answer would be x = -1 Am I right ? -

Undergrad Problem with a limit as infinity
Hello, There is a question in Calculus By James Stewart (5e) that says: Find the horizontal and vertical asympotes of y = \frac{x^2 + 4}{x^2 - 1}} I put it in limit as \lim_{\substack{x\rightarrow \infty}} \frac{x^2 + 4}{x^2 - 1}} and divided the numeratir abd denominator byx^2... -
