A cannon is fired at 30 degrees from the ground and the cannonball has initial velocity of 15 m/s. What is the height of the highest point the cannonball reaches and how far is this point horizontally from the cannon?

With this type of question always draw a diagram with the values on it. We can assume the positive direction is upwards. Start with considering the vertical motion and use SUVAT. s= ? (this is what we are...

2 identical trolleys of mass M(one is loaded with 2 blocks of mass m) are on a ramp inclined at 35° and are connected by a wire that passes around a pulley at the top of the ramp. They are released and accelerate accordingly. Show that a=(mgsin35°)/(M+m).

Construction of Free Body Diagrams of the Trolleys and resolving the forces (Weight and Tension) components acting parallel to the ramp (assuming friction and air resistance are negligible) show that for ...

Given that z = 6 is a root of the cubic equation z^3 − 10z^2 + 37z + p = 0, find the value of p and the other roots.

Okay, first, we will tackle this by using the information given to us (z=6) to solve for p. By substituting 6 wherever there is a z, we will end up with 216 - 360 + 222 + p = 0.Solving this through rearra...

A ball is released from height h w.r.t. the ground. Draw a qualitative height versus time diagram of the ball bouncing in a non-ideal case.

In a non-ideal case, there will be energy loss in heat when the ball touches the ground. In particular:Kn=aKn-1, where Kn-1...

A car of mass M and a maximum power output of P is on an rough inclined plane Θ to the horizontal. What is the maximum velocity (v). Coefficient of friction=μ and air resistance=kv where k is constant

At the maximum velocity the driving force of the car is equal to the sum of the opposing forces: Fdriving=Ffriction+Fair+mgsinΘ ...
