A projectile is launched from the ground at an angle of theta above the horizontal with an initial speed of v in​ ft/s. The rang

e​ (the total distance traveled by the projectile over level​ ground) of the projectile is approximated by the equation x = \frac{32}{v^2} sin 2 \theta. Find the launch angle of a projectile with an initial speed of 85​ft/s and a range of 170 ft.

Answer:

\theta=24.4^\circ

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula you wrote has the fraction the other way around. You can find that the range​ of a projectile is in reality approximated by the equation x=\frac{v^2}{g} sin(2\theta)=\frac{v^2}{32ft/s^2} sin(2\theta), where we will use ft for distances.

From the given equation we have then \frac{x32ft/s^2}{v^2} =sin(2\theta), which means \theta=\frac{Arcsin(\frac{x32ft/s^2}{v^2})}{2} since the arcsin is the inverse function of the sin.

Since we have x = 170 ft and  v = 85 ft/s, we can substitute these values from the equation written, and we will have \theta=\frac{Arcsin(\frac{(170ft)(32ft/s^2)}{(85ft/s)^2})}{2}, and from now on we have just to use a calculator, obtaining \theta=\frac{Arcsin(0.75294117647)}{2}=\frac{48.84579804^\circ}{2}=24.4^\circ

Answer: 2/3 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

okay so the speed now is 850, which is   850/340  = 2.5 times the original speed

Since It's 2.5 times the original speed,

2.5x = 5/3

so x = 5/3/2.5 = 2/3
