k4man42 Posted October 14, 2015 Author Share Posted October 14, 2015 I cannot view the image you sent me. Is there another form by which you can send me the solution to Kinematics #15e? Thank you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

k4man42 Posted October 14, 2015 Author Share Posted October 14, 2015 Algebraically, how can you isolate H? Could you also set 600m equal to (answer of 15d) - (answer of 15e) and solve for h? I couldn't work out the algebra. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FizziksGuy Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 Algebraically, separating out H would be a bit of a chore, and not one I really have the time to dive into right now (which is why the problem states that calculators are recommended).

k4man42 Posted October 15, 2015 Author Share Posted October 15, 2015 I wish I could figure out what to input into the calculator without first deriving an expression for H. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FizziksGuy Posted October 16, 2015 Share Posted October 16, 2015 (edited) Depends on what type of calculator you have. I use the "Solver" on my TI-85, but there are similar functions on most modern graphing calculators. On my TI-89 it looks like it's the "Numeric Solver." On the TI-84 it's under Math --> Solver.
