- In measuring values of distance and height, we can assume that measurements can be made with a measurement error of 0.05 m. Assume a projectile is launched horizontally with a height of 3 m, with a resulting range of 21.1 m. Using Min/Max and the equations of motion for a projectile, determine the time of flight of the projectile with most probable error.arrow_forwardIn What If? section of Example 4.5(phys.png), it was claimed that the maximum range of a ski jumper occurs for a launch angle θtheta given by where ϕ is the angle the hill makes with the horizontal in Figure 4.14.

- A river of width' a' with straight parallel banks flows due north with speed u. The points O and A are on opposite banks and A is due east of O. Coordinate axes Ox and Oy are taken in the east and north directions respectively. A boat, whose speed is v relative to water, starts from O and crosses the river. If the boat is steered due east and u varies with x as: u = x(a – x). Find: equation of trajectory of the boatarrow_forwardsuppose that you are Napoleon at the Battle of Waterloo. Your cannons have just arrived. the British are 1400 m to 1550 m away. the cannons you are using have muzzle velocities of 118 m/s and 200 m/s. Which cannons will you use and at what angle will you set them. there are two angles that will give the same distance for each cannon. one is greater than 45 degrees and one is less than 45 degrees. See if you can find both angles to use for each cannon, simply by trial ans error. then you have twice the firepower.arrow_forwardGiven the acceleration as a function of the angle theta, a =6.5sinθ + 2.3cosθ. Find the optimal angle, so the acceleration is maximum Find the value of the maximum acceleration I have found the derivative of the function but am confusing myself on the next steps.arrow_forward
