Physics 10-4-21 Angular Projectile Problems

PHYSICS – Great work today for a Monday! I love the way you are thinking through the angular projectile homework problems. We looked at #35 – the kicked football, and #62 – the accelerating rocket. Also did a bit of a heads up on #59 – jumping on Earth and Mars.

UPDATE: For tomorrow, add this monkey/zookeeper problem below to the 2D Motion Worksheet:

A zookeeper finds an escaped monkey hanging from a light pole. Aiming her tranquilizer gun at the monkey, she kneels 10.0 m from the light pole, which is 5.00 m high. The tip of her gun is 1.00 m above the ground. At the same moment that the monkey drops a banana, the zookeeper shoots. If the dart travels at 50.0 m/s, will the dart hit the monkey, the banana, or neither one?
