    Help! Physics Problem: Find Theta for 1000m Target

    I don't have a choice in sleeping, its due soon. The whole point of this project is to take the guesswork out of problems and show that it can be solved through the rigorous application of mathematics. That being said I guess that is the very nature of using the Euler Method

    I don't know how to evaluate all of that is the problem

    Help! Physics Problem: Find Theta for 1000m Target

    Lets just say that the velocity was 820 m/s at. Ignoring the fact that projectiles act differently at supersonic speeds, and accounting for a -kv^2 kind of relationship, how would I find theta?

    Help! Physics Problem: Find Theta for 1000m Target

    http://scholarcommons.usf.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=4836&context=ujmm Ive been awake for thirty six hours and I don't know differential equations. Im trying to find the angle (theta) over the horizontal axis that is needed to hit a target that is 1000 meters away they are basically...

    Ballistic Coefficients vs Drag Coefficients

    So, I'm currently writing a mathematical analysis of a bullet with a muzzle velocity of 790 m/s. I have found that the standard equation for drag force... Fd = 1/2 * ρ * v2 * Cd * A does not work because the drag coefficient for a bullet (.295) does not account for supersonic speeds. What I...
