(choose chapter or problem)

A spring cannon is located at the edge of a table thatis 1.20 m above the floor. A steel ball is launched fromthe cannon with speed vi at 35.0 above the horizontal.(a) Find the horizontal position of the ball as a functionof vi at the instant it lands on the floor. We writethis function as x(vi). Evaluate x for (b) vi 5 0.100 m/sand for (c) vi 5 100 m/s. (d) Assume vi is close to butnot equal to zero. Show that one term in the answer topart (a) dominates so that the function x(vi ) reduces toa simpler form. (e) If vi is very large, what is the approximateform of x(vi)? (f) Describe the overall shape ofthe graph of the function x(vi ).
