Finding Velocity and Acceleration Along a Plane Curve In Exercises 1-8,the position vector describes the path of an object moving in the xy-plane. (a) Find the velocity vector,speed,and acceleration vector of the object. (b) Evaluate the velocity vector and acceleration vector of the object at the given point. (c) Sketch a graph of the path,and sketch the velocity and acceleration vectors at the given point. Position Vector Point \(\mathbf{r}(t)=3 t \mathbf{i}+(t-1) \mathbf{j}\) (3, 0) Text Transcription: r(t)=3t i + (t-1)j

Question
Projectile Motion In Exercises 25-38,use the model for projectile motion,assuming there is no air resistance.
Use a graphing utility to graph the paths of a projectile for the given values of \(\theta\) and \(v_{0}\). For each case, use the graph to approximate the maximum height and range of the projectile. (Assume that the projectile is launched from ground level.)
(a) \(\theta=10^{\circ}, v_{0}=66 \mathrm{ft} / \mathrm{sec}\)
(b) \(\theta=10^{\circ}, v_{0}=146 \mathrm{ft} / \mathrm{sec}\)
(c) \(\theta=45^{\circ}, v_{0}=66 \mathrm{ft} / \mathrm{sec}\)
(d) \(\theta=45^{\circ}, v_{0}=146 \mathrm{ft} / \mathrm{sec}\)
(e) \(\theta=60^{\circ}, v_{0}=66 \mathrm{ft} / \mathrm{sec}\)
(f) \(\theta=60^{\circ}, v_{0}=146 \mathrm{ft} / \mathrm{sec}\)
