Suppose that a projectile is launched from the origin (0,0) in such a way that the object's distance from the origin is always increasing. Determine the maximum angle to the horizontal so that this occurs. As usual, ignore air resistance and other negligible forces.

A projectile is launched at a speed of 39.1m/s and an angle of 25˚ above the horizontal surface so that it lands on a target 120 m away. Neglect air resistance. The projectile is in the air for 3.4s. Someone constructs a wall between the launch site and the target that is just high enough to block the projectile's path. If the launch speed cannot be changed, at what angle could we launch the projectile to ensure that it still...

I have a physics problem that gives me a projectile launched. It tells me the angle above horizontal, the MINIMUM speed while in flight, and the amount of meters the ball traveled when it lands. The question asks for max height. What's tripping me up is this MINIMUM velocity. Where on the projectile is the velocity a minimum. I was thinking the minimum velocity would be at the highest point, because at the highest point the velocity is 0, however,...

A projectile is launched on a planet other than Earth at a velocity of 36.4 m/s 30.0o above the horizontal. The ground slopes down in the direction of travel, so the projectile impacts the ground 37.7 m below the level from which it was launched. If the horizontal distance it travels is 337 m, what is the magnitude of the acceleration of gravity near the surface of the alien planet?

. A mortar is a simple projectile which is launched at a fixed velocity v0, but the angle θ at which it is launched can be varied. An artillery officer finds that he can hit a target a maximum distance of 2.25 kilometers away when launched on the flat horizontal practice range. The officer is later charged with using the same mortar to strike an enemy ammunition depot before it can be moved. He determines that the depot is a...

A 4.0 kg projectile is launched into the air with an initial velocity of 15 m/s at an angle of 30° above the horizontal. When the projectile reaches its maximum height it explodes, splitting in two parts, one of mass 3.0 kg and one of mass 1.0 kg. Assume the explosion was essentially instantaneous. Determine the maximum height of the projectile using energy. After the explosion, if the 1.0 kg mass is moving at 1/2 the speed it was right...
