Boat A moves with constant velocity of 6m/s. starting from position down. Fine the angle in order for the projectile to hit the boat 5 seconds after starting, under the conditions given. How high is the hill above the water?
Added by Mikaela M.
Step 1
First, we need to find the horizontal distance the boat will travel in 5 seconds. Since the boat is moving at a constant velocity of 6 m/s, we can use the formula: distance = velocity × time distance = 6 m/s × 5 s = 30 meters So, the boat will be 30 meters away Show more…

Launching Speed The launching speed of a certain projectile is five times the speed it has at its maximum height. Calculate the elevation angle $\theta_{1}$ at launching.
Distance Traveled by a Projectile An object is shot straight upward from sea level with an initial velocity of 400 ft/sec. (a) Assuming gravity is the only force acting on the object, give an upper estimate for its velocity after 5 sec have elapsed. Use $g=32 \mathrm{ft} / \mathrm{sec}^{2}$ for the gravitational constant. (b) Find a lower estimate for the height attained after 5 sec.
