A 40 kg artillery shell was fired from a cannon with an initial speed of 84 m/s at a 45° angle above the ground. Unfortunately, the shell was poorly made and exploded into two pieces 4 s after it was launched. One piece was five times heavier than the other. The heavier piece landed 600 m from the cannon. How far from the cannon (in meters) did the lighter piece land? HINT: the range of an artillery shell is given by the equation (v^2* sin(theata))/g , where v0 is the initial speed of the shell and ? is the launch angle.

An artillery shell is launched on a flat, horizontal field at anangle of a = 37.6° with respect to the horizontal and with aninitial speed of v0 = 272 m/s.
(a) What is the horizontal velocity of the shell after 20.21 s offlight? (Neglect air friction. Use the coordinate system where thex-axis is horizontal and points to the right; and the y-axis isvertical and points up.)

(b) What is the vertical velocity of the shell at this moment?

A projectile is launched with an initial speed of 40 m/s at anangle of 30° above the horizontal. The projectile lands on ahillside 4 s later. Neglect air friction.
(a) What is the projectile's velocity at the highest point of itstrajectory?
m/s

(b) What is the straight-line distance from where the projectilewas launched to where it hits its target? (Note that the hill mayslope up or down from the launch point.)
m
