A small ball is launched at an angle of 30.0 degrees above the horizontal. It reaches a maximum height of 2.5 m with respect to the launch position. Find (a) the initial velocity of the ball when it's launched and (b) its range, defined as the horizontal distance traveled until it returns to his original height. As always you can ignore air resistance. Problem 3 (a) Initial velocity [Hints: How is vo related to vxo and vy0- How can you use the information given to calculate either or both of the components of the initial velocity?] Height Vo Range (b) Range [Hints: This problem is very similar to today's Lab Challenge except that for the challenge the ball will land at a different height.]
Displacement, Velocity and Acceleration
In classical mechanics, kinematics deals with the motion of a particle. It deals only with the position, velocity, acceleration, and displacement of a particle. It has no concern about the source of motion.
Linear Displacement
The term "displacement" refers to when something shifts away from its original "location," and "linear" refers to a straight line. As a result, “Linear Displacement” can be described as the movement of an object in a straight line along a single axis, for example, from side to side or up and down. Non-contact sensors such as LVDTs and other linear location sensors can calculate linear displacement. Non-contact sensors such as LVDTs and other linear location sensors can calculate linear displacement. Linear displacement is usually measured in millimeters or inches and may be positive or negative.
I just need help understanding which equation to use for this.
