Find the initial velocity of a projectile
Homework Statement So it's based off of a track&field long jumper. Calculate the initial speed, v0, of a long-jumper where d=7.87 m. Assume a take-off angle of 21.4°, an initial height of the centre-of-mass of 0.920 m, and a final height of 0.460 m. So I use the range equation for...- Workout

What is the strength of the gravitational field?
So g = G(-m)/r^2 where G = 6.67x10^-11 r = 2000m So I get m = -5.997x10^16 x g So then I equate what you were saying about reducing the density as much as the oil reduces the density of the earth. -5.997x10^16 x g / 900 kg/m^3 = 2700kg/m^3 And I solve for g and I get -4.05x10^-11 m/s^2.- Workout
