The shells fired from an artillery piece have a muzzle speed of 195 m/s, and the target is at a horizontal distance of 2.00 km. Two possible angles can be used to hit the target. Find the smallest angle relative to the horizontal at which the gun should be aimed? (Hint: sin2θ = 2sinθcosθ)
Homework Answers
Given R=2km=2000m
speed=195m/s
smallest angle Θ = ½*arcsin[R*g/V²] = 15.51° above
horizontal
The larger angle Θ' = (90 - Θ) = 74.48°

1. The artillery gun with the muzzle velocity of 400ms is used to create an avalanche on the slope of the skiing mountain. The target is 13.0km awayhorizontally,and 3.0km above the position of the gun. a) What should be ?(the projectile angle above the horizontal)to reach the target?b) What will be the magnitude and the direction ( with respect to the horizontal plane)of the projectile when it hits the target.

A battleship has a gun that fires shells with muzzle velocity u, and the gunner wants to hit an enemy ship at range L. The gun is to be fired at some angle θ above the horizontal. Find the two possible values of θ that are possible under normal conditions. Under what conditions are there one solution or no solutions at all? To what extent is the form of the solution determined by units?

(hrw8c9p15) A shell is fired from a gun with a muzzle velocity of 23 m/s, at an angle of 60° with the horizontal. At the top of the trajectory, the shell explodes into two fragments of equal mass (see the figure). One fragment, whose speed immediately after the explosion is zero, falls vertically. How far from the gun does the other fragment land, assuming that the terrain is level and that the air drag is negligible

Frequently, a weapon must be fired at a target that is closer than the weapon's maximum range. To hit such a target, a weapon has two possible launch angles (figure A): one higher than 45= (x) and one lower than 45- (C.). Although the displacement of the projectile is the same for the two angles, a projectile launched at y has a longer flight time and a higher peak position than one launched at 8. Usually, some tactical situation makes...

An artillery gunner is on top of a 50.0 m high hill. 10.0 km away from the base of the hill, a tank is advancing towards the gunner at a speed of 15.0 m/s. The artillery piece launches projectiles at velocity of 590 m/s. At what angle above the horizontal should the gunner fire to hit the tank? a) Write an equation for the height of the projectile as a function of time. b) Write an equation for the horizontal...
