A projectile leaves the barrel of a cannon with a speed of 633 feet/sec at an angle of 55 degrees above the horizontal. Ignoring the effects of air friction find:

(a) the maximum altitude achieved by the projectile

(b) the horizontal range achieved by the projectile

(c) the displacement and the velocity (both are vectors in 2D) of the projectile 15 seconds after firing.

Calculate quantities in units of feet and feet/sec.

1. A cannon ball is fired from a giant cannon whose length is 1.00 x 102 m.  The cannon ball leaves the barrel at a speed of 99.5 m/s: a. What is the acceleration of the cannon ball while in the cannon? Show all work. The cannon ball (above) leaves the barrel at ground level at an angle of 60.0o from the ground and travels with minimal air resistance until impacting on the ground some distance away. b. Calculate the initial...

What do we need? ▪ Assumptions: Negligible air resistance, no wind effects, ▪ Governing equations: projectile equations (equations of motion) Equations: x= Vo Cosxt (1) Vx=Vocosx (2) Y= 1/2gt^2 +Vosinxt +Yo (3) Vy= Vosinx+gt (4) ▪ find the optimal firing parameters (firing angle, muzzle velocity) to hit a target that is a distance away and you are shooting from a hill. Start calculating and optimizing. Vo = 10 ft/sec Yo = 100 ft g = 32 ft/sec^2 t = time,...
