    Courses Should I take Calc 3 before Physics 2?

    That seems fair, that's pretty much what I was looking to find out. I've heard physics 2 is supposedly much more difficult then 1 so I just wanted to get an idea of if it'd be better or not. That's why I was thinking this way also. I'm not doing terrible so far, but nothing's really come easy...

    Courses Should I take Calc 3 before Physics 2?

    It only specifies calculus 2 as the prerequisite on the website. I had heard from some that a lot of calc 3 subjects show up in the class and they said it was better to take calc 3 first as a result. I've been having a difficult time with physics 1 so I wasn't sure if I should go ahead and...

    Courses Should I take Calc 3 before Physics 2?

    I've heard several people mention that physics 2 uses a lot of material covered in calc 3 (multivariable I believe would be its equivalent). The physics 2 course at my college covers Coulomb's Law, electric fields and potentials, capacitance, currents and circuit, Ampere's Law, Faraday's Law...

    Kinematics: baseball toss with an angle provided

    So following the instructions to use the ##R## equation, I get ##R_A = \frac {V_0^2} {g} sin(45*2)## and since ##sin(45*2) = sin(90)## which equals ##1## I get ##\frac {V_0^2} {g}## which will be the total distance ##D## of the ball toss since this was the range of the ball that doesn't bounce...

    Kinematics: baseball toss with an angle provided

    Thank you so much for the reply. For some reason the ##R## equation wasn't covered in lecture and I must've overlooked it in the book somehow (we'll chalk that up to me being a dummy haha) I'll make an attempt with that, thank you again.

    Kinematics: baseball toss with an angle provided

    Homework Statement An outfielder throws a baseball to his catcher in an attempt to throw out a runner at home plate. The ball bounces once before reaching the catcher. Assume the angle at which the bounced ball leaves the ground is the same as the angle at which the outfielder threw it as shown...
