A classic physics problem states that if a projectile is shot vertically up into the air with an initial velocity of 146 feet per second from an initial height of 89 feet off the ground, then the height of the projectile, hh, in feet, tt seconds after it's shot is given by the equation: h=−16t2+146t+89h=-16t2+146t+89 Find the two points in time when the object is 126 feet above the ground (to one decimal places). Answer: The object is 126 feet off the ground at the following times: (Enter your two answers separated by a comma. Round to ONE decimal places.)

A marble is launched from the edge of a table at a angle of 45 ° up from horizontal and goes through the air until it hits the floor. True or False? For such a marble, |vx| (the magnitude of the x-component of the velocity) is decreasing the entire time the marble is airborne.
A stone is thrown horizontally from the highest point of a 95 m building and lands 115 m from the base of the building. Ignore air resistance, and use a coordinate system whose origin is at the highest point of the building, with positive y upwards and positive x in the direction of the throw. How long is the stone in the air in seconds? What must have been the initial horizontal component of the velocity, in meters per second? What is the vertical component of the velocity just before the stone hits the ground, in meters per second? What is the magnitude of the velocity of the stone just before it hits the ground, in meters per second?

A projectile is launched with a launch angle of 30° with respect to the horizontal direction and with an initial speed of 26 m/s. How do the vertical and horizontal components of the projectile's velocity vary with time?The initial velocity in the x-direction vx0 is related to the initial speed by vx0 = v0 cos 30°. The constant velocity in the x-direction means that the equation describing the time dependence of x for the particle, with x0 taken as 0, is x = x0 + vx0t = 0 + m/s t. The equation for the vertical coordinate, which is constantly accelerating downward at g = 9.8 m/s2, is y = y0 + vy0t − 1 2 gt2 = m/s t + m/s2 t2.
