    How Do You Determine Horizontal Asymptotes in Functions?

    How do i find horizontal asymptotes? Is there a derivative test for that? for example how do i find the asymptotes for y=2xe^-x^5 i know that there has to be a horizontal one, are there any others?

    Horizontal velocity experiment

    Hai all, In projectiles the horizondal component of their velocity remains constant and veritical compont changes as it gets accelarated.So with this, I think we can find an experiment that gives the accelaration due to gravity(g) without a clock.i.e if we are droping a ball from a...

    Is This Equation Correct for Horizontal Projection?

    I think this physics problem deals only with horizontal projection...let me know what you think: A block slides off a horizontal surface with speed Vo. Write an expression relating y, distance fallen, to X, the horizontal distance traveled. i think i can use the horizontal proj. equations...

    What formula would I use to find the horizontal force?

    Hey guys, I am kind of new to this physics thing, and I need some help. Any advice you can give me is more than welcome. :) 1. An 850 kg (1878 lb) dragster, starting from rest, attains a speed of 27.0 m/s (60.5 mph) in 0.59 s. A. Assume that the driver has a mass of 68 kg. What...

    Determine the angle between the inclined plane and the horizontal

    A hollow, thin-walled cylinder and a solid sphere start from rest and roll without slipping down an inclined plane of length 5 m. The cylinder arrives at the bottom of the plane 2.6 s after the sphere. Determine the angle between the inclined plane and the horizontal. x=Vo + 1/2 at^2 and I...

    How Do You Calculate Horizontal Force and Tension in Physics Problems?

    Q1. A 3.87 kg block is held in equilibrium on an incline by the horizontal force F. The incline makes a 23.6 degree angle with the horizontal. Determine the magnitude of F. Answer in units of N. Q2. The distance between two telephone poles is 48 m. When a 1.36 kg bird lands on the telephone...

    Find the Horizontal Tangent of f(x)=x^2 + 4x - 1

    At what point is the tangent to f(x)=x^2 + 4x - 1 horizontal? How do you do that? I think it's asking me at what point is x = 0, or undefined, right??

    Solving for T in a horizontal projectile equation

    Hi, I am stuck on even how to start to solve for T the equations is: 0 = Vi / K (1 - e^-kt)(sin theta) + (g / k^2)(1-kt-e^-kt) Any suggestions on how to begin to solve for T would be appreciated. Thanks, Matt
