If a projectile is fired from the origin of the coordinate system with an initial velocity υ0 and in a direction making an angle α with the horizontal, calculate the time required for the projectile to cross a line passing through the origin and making an angle β < α with the horizontal.
In the blizzard of ’88, a rancher was forced to drop hay bales from an airplane to feed her cattle. The plane flew horizontally at 160 km/hr and dropped the bales from a height of 80 m above the flat range, (a) She wanted the bales of hay to land 30 m behind the cattle so as to not hit them. Where should she push the bales out of the airplane? (b) To not hit the cattle, what is the largest time error she could make while pushing the bales out of the airplane? Ignore air resistance.
A projectile is launched on the Earth with a certain initial velocity and moves without air resistance.
