In my homework, I am asked to derive an equation for V0.
The homework question is as follows: A howitzer fires a shell with a velocity of v0 at an angle Θ above the horizontal. The howitzer is on a plateau and the shell lands down in the plain below, a vertical distance d below the plateau and a horizontal distance L from where the howitzer is. Derive an expression for the magnitude of the initial velocity, V0, as a function of d, L, g, and Θ.
Any help would be appreciated as I have worked on this problem for quite a while and I am not making progress.
A projectile is fired at v0 = 433.0 m/s at an angle of 71.4, with respect to the horizontal. Assume that air friction will shorten the range by 28.1%. How far will the projectile travel in the horizontal direction, R?
A player shoots a ball with an initial velocity v, = 6.5 m/s at an angle of 49 with the
horizontal from a height of 2.3 m above the ground and from a distance x =
2.9 m away from the basket as shown in the figure below. If the ball passes through the
basket without touching the ring, then the height h of the basket is equal to:
