Projections quadratiques |
2003-12-14 |
|
Jennifer pose la question : Je vous serais très reconnaissante si vous pouviez
m'expliquer :
pourquoi la moyenne des projections quadratiques d'un segment sur un
axe (en 3D) est égale à a*a/3 sachant que "a" représente
la longueur de ce segment et que toutes les orientations du segment sont également
probable. Claude Tardif lui répond. |

Romeo throws a pebble at Juliet's wondow |
2011-08-22 |
|
Natalie pose la question : There is a picture of Romeo trying to attract Juliet's attention without her nurse who is in a downstairs room, noticing. he stands 10m from the house and lobs a small pebble at her bedroom window (3.5m high). Romeo throws the pebble from a height of 1m with a speed of 11.5m/s at an angle of 60degrees to the horizontal. I have already found that it take 1.74seconds to reach the window and that it does in fact hit Juliet's window however i cannot work out the speed of the pebble when it hits the window! The answer is 9.12m/s but I cannot reach this answer. Hope you can help me :) Robert Dawson lui répond. |

A Falling Rock |
2008-07-11 |
|
Rita pose la question : This question has 3 parts.
If a rock falls from a height of 20 meters on the planet Jupiter, its height H
(in meters) after x seconds is about H(x) = 20 - 13x^2
(a) What is the height of the rock when x = 1.2 seconds?
(b) When is the height of the rock 15 meters?
(c) When does the rock strike the ground?
Thank you Janice Cotcher lui répond. |

Constantly accelerated motion |
2007-10-29 |
|
Priyanka pose la question : A, B and C are three points lying in that order on a straight line. A body is
projected from B towards A with speed 3 m/s. The body experiences an
acceleration of 1 m/s^2 towards C. If BC =20 m, find the time taken to reach C and
the distance travelled by the body from the moment of projection until it reaches C. Stephen La Rocque lui répond. |

The range of a projectile |
2007-09-18 |
|
Claudette pose la question : This is a maximum minimum problem that my textbook didn't even try to give an example of how to do it in the text itself. It just suddenly appears in the exercises.
Problem: The range of a projectile is R = v^2 Sin 2x/g, where v is its initial velocity, g is the acceleration due to gravity and is a constant, and x is the firing angle. Find the angle that maximizes the projectile's range.
The author gives no information other than the formula.
I thought to find the derivative of the formula setting that to zero, but once I had done that, I still had nothing that addressed the author's question.
Any help would be sincerely appreciated.

Dillon pose la question : Ron throws a ball straight up with an initial speed of 60 feet per second from a height of 5 feet. Find parametric equations that describe the motion of the ball as a function of time. How long is the ball in the air? When is the ball at its maximum height? What is the maximum height of the ball?

The path of a cannonball |
2001-01-15 |
|
A student pose la question : Artillerymen on a hillside are trying to hit a target behind a mountain on the other side of a river. Their cannon is at (x, y) = (3, 250) where x is in kilometers and y is in meters. The target is at (x, y) = (-2, 50). In order to avoid hitting the mountain on the other side of the river, the projectile from the cannon must go through the point (x, y) = (-1, 410). Write the equation for the problem.
