If the arrow was fired in a direction making an angle x with the horizontal, and assuming that acceleration due to gravity is 32 feet per second^2 ijn the downward direction, then its height at time t iss(t) = 160*sin(x)*t - 16*t^2.

What is the initial arclength of a pendulum when you know the length and mass and max velocity and initial height of the pendulum?

If you know the initial height and the length of the pendulum, then you have no use for the mass or the velocity. You already have the radius of a circle, and an arc for which you know the height of both ends. You can easily calculate the arc-length from these. And by the way . . . it'll be the same regardless of the mass or the max velocity. They don't matter.

How to find the height of the projectile launch if the angle velocity and the distance are given?

Get the value of initial velocity. Get the angle of projection. Break initial velocity into components along x and y axis. Apply the equation of motion .


. ok v velocity a acceleration but what about you?

if by 'you', you mean 'u' then u is the initial velocity v is the final velocity. you need to know the initial velocity in trajectory question (motion of an object through the air) to find height, acceleration, time etc.


Will a ball drop rest reach the ground quicker than the one lunched from the same height but with and initial horizontal velocity?

No. What counts in this case is the vertical component of the velocity, and the initial vertical velocity is zero, one way or another.

How many feet does a balloon move each second after how many seconds will a balloon be at height of 40 feet?

The answer depends on what gas the balloon contains, its initial velocity and the forces - gravity, buoyancy, cross-wind - acting on it.


A rock is dropped from the top of a cliff what is the velocity after 2 seconds 5 seconds 10 seconds?

Since the equation for time=sqrt(2h/g) set 2 seconds for time and 9.8 for gravity so 2=sqrt(2h/9.8) clear the sqrt by squaring both sides 4= 2h/9.8 9.8*4 =2h (9.8*4)/2 = height. now that you have the height, you can do v=distance/time v=height from the equation prior/2 seconds i hope that works..
