    Optimize Your Rooftop Space with Aquaponics - A Step-by-Step Guide

    roof angle as wedge could i some how use the wedge where 2 sloping rooftops come together as a wedge? if you are looking down onto the roof from straight overhead the roof is a U shape and each of the three slopes towards the center, so as if you were looking into an upside down hollow...

    Optimize Your Rooftop Space with Aquaponics - A Step-by-Step Guide

    first, this is for my actual home's rooftop and isn't school related. I am not in a physics class. i have 2 areas of 10'X20' of gutters filled halfway with water on my inclined roof. the gutters are 10 feet long and have a radius of 2inches. each gutter is evenly placed one foot apart from...

    Energy conservation of a sliding box

    ok i found the distance from top of incline to bottom of incline to be .459meters using laws of triangles. so if friction is acting the velocity is gsin33-.19gcos33 and that equals 3.7758 v2=2ad v2=3.466 v=1.8618 ok so we got Vi at the bottom to be 1.861 and the y1 and y2 at the bottom...

    Energy conservation of a sliding box

    3.4kg rock starts at 25 cm on a plane with a 33degree angle. upon reaching the bottom the box slides along the horizontal. friction coeff is .19. how far does the box slide on the horizontal before coming to a rest? ok i need to use .5MVi2 + MGy1 = .5MVf2 + MGy2 + Ffrd first i need to...

    Calculating Initial Velocity to Make a 10m Basketball Shot

    the angle is on the horizontal. i think i need to use forumla V2y=V2oy-2gdeltay? nevermind on my answer about Vy...Im stumped edit.. ok Vfy2=0+2(9.8)(1.14) Vfy=4.726 m/s

    Calculating Initial Velocity to Make a 10m Basketball Shot

    the angle is on the horizontal. nevermind on that Vy answer. I am stumped. how do i find Vxo and Vyo? is Y just the difference in the goal height and the height from which he shot? so Y is 1.14? and x is 10m?

    Calculating Initial Velocity to Make a 10m Basketball Shot

    a basketball player is 1.9m tall, wants to make a basket 10m away. the basket is 3.05m tall. gravity is 9.8, if he shoots from a height of 1.91m at 33.3 degree angle, what initial speed is thrown to make a basket? i have no clue how to find initial velocity when it isn't given.
