In medieval warfare, one of the greatest technological advancement was the trebuchet. The trebuchet was used to sling rocks into
1 answer:
Answer:
2) a_y= -g 3) vₓ=constant v_y = v_{oy} - g t, 4) vₓ = v₀ₓ - ax t
5) changes the horizontal speed, should change range
7) changes the vertical speed change the maximum height
Explanation:
1) After reading your long writing, we are going to solve the exercise, in the attachment you can see the different vectors.
2) The acceleration vectors are vertical and directed downwards due to the attraction of the Earth (gravity force) this force is constant, on the x axis there is no acceleration
3) the velocity vectors on the x-axis are constant because there are no relationships and the y-axis changes value according to the expression
v_y = v_{oy} - gt
at the point of maximum height, vy = 0 is equal to the maximum height
4) For someone to change the horizontal acceleration we must assume a friction with the air, in this case they relate it would be in the opposite direction to the horizontal speed
In the graph it would be directed to the left, therefore the velocity would be
vₓ = v₀ₓ - ax t
5 and 6) If someone changes the horizontal speed, they should change the range of the shot for greater horizontal speed, the rock goes further.
the equations of motion are
x = v₀ₓ t
y = v_{oy} t - ½ g t²
7) If someone changes the vertical speed change the maximum height, but not the scope of the shot, for higher speed higher maximum height,
the equations of motion are the same.

Let be the average acceleration over the first 2.46 seconds, and
the average acceleration over the next 6.79 seconds.
At the start, the car has velocity 30.0 m/s, and at the end of the total 9.25 second interval it has velocity 15.2 m/s. Let be the velocity of the car after the first 2.46 seconds.
By definition of average acceleration, we have
and we're also told that
(or possibly the other way around; I'll consider that case later). We can solve for in the ratio equation and substitute it into the first average acceleration equation, and in turn we end up with an equation independent of the accelerations:
Now we can solve for . We find that
In the case that the ratio of accelerations is actually
we would instead have
in which case we would get a velocity of
(a) The mass of the bullet is 
and its speed is 
, so its momentum is
The pitcher claims that he can throw the ball with the same momentum p of the ball. Since the mass of the ball is m=0.148 kg, this means that the velocity of the ball must be:
(b) The kinetic energy of the bullet is:
while the kinetic energy of the ball is:
So, the bullet has greater kinetic energy than the ball.
