19 Checkpoint 2 A destroyer simultaneously fires two shells with the same ini@al speed at two different enemy ships. The shells follow the trajectories shown. Which ship gets hit first. Destroyer Enemy 1 Enemy 2 A) Enemy 1 B) Enemy 2 C) They are both hit at the 65% of you got this one right let s try again Mechanics Lecture 2, Slide 22

20 Which enemy ship gets hit first? A) Enemy 1 B) Enemy 2 C) Same Checkpoint 2 Destroyer Enemy 1 Enemy 2 A) they are traveling at the same speed, but the enemy one trajectory is shorter B) Both shots were accelera@ng towards the ground at the same rate, but the shot fired at Enemy 2 did not go as high and therefore took to fall back to the ground. C) we are given that two shells are fired at same speed. therefore, both ships should get hit at the Mechanics Lecture 2, Slide 23

Destroyer Enemy 1 Enemy 2 A) Enemy 1 B) Enemy 2 C) They are both hit at the same time 62% of you got this one right let s try again Mechanics Lecture 2, Slide 24

22 Field Goal Example A field goal kicker can kick the ball 30 m/s at an angle of 30 degrees w.r.t. the ground. If the crossbar of the goal post is 3m off the ground, from how far away can he kick a field goal? y x 3 m D y-direction v oy = v o sin(30 o ) = 15 m/s y = y o + v oy t + ½ at 2 3 m = 0 m + (15 m/s) t ½ (9.8 m/s 2 ) t 2 t = 2.8 s or t = 0.22 s. x-direction v ox = v o cos(30 o ) = 26 m/s D = x o + v ox t + ½ at 2 = 0 m + (26 m/s)(2.8 s) + 0 m/s 2 (2.8 s ) 2 = 72.8 m Video of 70-yard Field Goal = 79.6 yards Mechanics Lecture 2, Slide 26

A) Going up At the top Going down Velocity + 0 Accelera@on B) C) Going up At the top Going down Velocity + 0 Accelera@on + 0 Going up At the top Going down Velocity + 0 Accelera@on 0 +

24 Monkey Troubles You are a vet trying to shoot a tranquilizer dart into a monkey hanging from a branch in a distant tree. You know that the monkey is very nervous, and will let go of the branch and start to fall as soon as your gun goes off. In order to hit the monkey with the dart, where should you point the gun before shoo@ng? A) Right at the monkey B) Below the monkey C) Above the monkey Mechanics Lecture 2, Slide 18
