It looks like it was deleted. It would have been nice if the moderator told me why. As far as I can tell, it was posted in the correct forum and I explained how I went about trying to solve it. Well, in a nutshell - is it possible to use basic algebraic projectile formulas to find out how...

Hello, I'm a high school physics teacher and also working on a PhD in science curriculum and instruction. I've been teaching regular and honors physics for a couple of years and probably will add an A.P. Physics 1 section next year (depending on the school's scheduling priorities). I came...

I've been trying some online projectile problems. Specifically, I was using this one on master difficulty, looking at row e. It uses a random number generator; I shared the data I received in the Homework Statement above. According to the help section, you can solve this with the formula...
