Shooting a ball at a target |
2016-02-16 |
|
Thys pose la question : Hi
I have a problem with the formula that i use .(for programming)
I have looked all over the web to find a solution but no luck.
I have a cannon that shoots a ball at a target
I use this formula to calculate what my initial velocity must be to hit the target
at a angle of 30 degrees and a distance of 15m (the cannon and target position is known)
It works perfectly if both is at same height but if one is higher or lower it miss.
In an example I am working with the range is 30m, the angle is 45 degrees and the target is 10m higher than my position.
Please help
Formula = V0 = √RG / Sin(2α) Harley Weston lui répond. |

The diameter and circumference of a circle |
2015-09-01 |
|
Tracey pose la question : Hello,
I own a custom workroom, I am figuring out fabric quantities or an estimate. When
at the job site, I forgot to measure the diameter of the semi circle shape that I have to
make a cushion for!!!
If the circumference of the semi circle is 165" what would the diameter be, maybe half
this measurement????
I appreciate any help...I basically need the width from left to right to see if I can fit
the cushion on one width of fabric that is 52" wide! Penny Nom lui répond. |

Rolls of window film |
2014-02-14 |
|
Travis pose la question : This question is probably close to the same question as "roll of paper"
We have Rolls of Window Film that we are trying to figure out an equation for a spreadsheet that we can use to "inventory" our window film.
We use a caliper tool to measure the thickness of the roll in millimeters.
the core thickness = 1.90mm
Full Roll thickness(including core) = 9.08mm to 9.12mm
Film thickness = 0.06
Full Roll of Film is supposed to average 1200" of film
What equation could we use to get the approximate inches left remaining on the roll if we measured the roll including the core with the Caliper tool in Millimeters? Harley Weston lui répond. |

How do i reverse this formula? |
2013-04-20 |
|
MK pose la question : I have 22,000,000 worth of gold and wants to want to resell the gold back with a profit.
Each transaction of gold will have a transaction fee of 15%, so if i resell the gold back at 22,000,000, I will only get back 18,700,000 after 15% transaction cut.
The current formula is X-15%X = Y where X = 22,000,000 and Y = 18,700,000
Will u be able to come up with a new formula if we don't know the value of X but we know the value of Y
Something like this X-15%X = 22,000,000.
How do i reverse this formula to find the value of X
Thanks Penny Nom lui répond. |

A label to cover a plastic cup |
2012-10-23 |
|
Kevin pose la question : I'm trying to make a label to cover the entire outer area or a plastic cup. I know there must be a way to figure out the dimensions needed, but I can't seem to figure it out. The circumference of the bottom of the cup is 21.4cm and the circumference at the top of the cup is 29.8cm. The cup is 14.5cm tall. What should the height of the arc from the plane connecting the two ends of the 21.4cm arc. I attached a diagram where x is the value I'm looking for. I'm guessing there is some simple relationship between the length of a line and the arc needed to turn that line into a perfect circle, but I don't know what it is. Can you figure this out and share it with me? Thanks.

out on cloth. I need the wind sock front opening (diameter) to be
3 1/2" and the rear opening diameter to be 1". The windsock needs
to be 9 1/2" long. I tried using the example of the person trying to
make a crayfish trap but got confused and could not figure out my
numbers. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Measuring the liquid in a horizontal tank |

A stained glass lamp |
2011-07-25 |
|
Guy pose la question : Like Kay, I also work in stained glass, but in 3-dimensions. I am
frequently asked to replicate lamp shades in stained glass where the
diameter of the top is different (narrower) from the diameter of the
bottom (which is wider). Some people want 5, 6, 7, 8, 10, 12, 16, ,,,
n-sided shades. Is there a formula I can use to determine the width
of the sides using the angle, if I remember correctly, I think it's
called theta. In other words, is there a formula where I can plug
in the angle which describes the arc of the circle. For instance, if
someone asks for a 7 sided shade, plugging in 51.43 (360/7). I
could then use that to determine the width at the top and bottom
rings to create the appropriate trapezoids. I've visited a few sites
so the formula looks like its a function of sin & cos but they are
presented like proofs for teaching. Your site appears to want to
actually answer questions without making the inquirer feel stupid. Harley Weston lui répond. |

jason pose la question : Same set up as many others, cylindrical tank on its side, but I am interested in defining the change in volume and/or fluid level as a function of time at a constant volumetric outflow. I plan on hooking a pump to the tank so "gpms' will be constant. I have a couple different sized tanks and pumps so I want a general equation. Thanks for your help. Harley Weston lui répond. |
