Hmmm... Since y=vy(t)-.5gt² And since both the bullet and target need to meet at the same level, set the two y values equal to each other? vsinθ-.5g(2vy/g)²=vsin0-5g((2y/g)^1/2)² The first portion of the equality is the bullet, which follows a Case 2 motion, a parabolic path with an...

The vertical component of both the target and bullet are the same, they will fall at the same rate as long as they are released at the same time, so why is there any question to what angle is required to hit the object? After t seconds, the bullet and target will have fallen the same distance...

How can you know the time without knowing the velocity first, because there's no way to measure the time it took to get to the second location if it moves faster than light.

Well, I think something could travel faster than light, but the only way to know that it was at a given location is with the use of light. So, if particle A traveled to place B at faster than the speed of light, we would only know it got to place B once light reached that point, right? And...

cogito ergo sum? If there is something(you) pondering existence, then it must have existence to even be pondering upon it, correct? After that, there is nothing proveable. The only thing one can truly know, with certainty, is that one is an entity of some sort. I know I am something...

Fire is a chemical reaction, not a living organism. You can say that humans are merely atoms compiled into one working unit, but humans have volition, a predictability for the sustainment of life, and fire does not. Fire also doesn't react to the environment, which is a big component of...
