I am currently doing a project involving an object sliding down a slope and falling freely for a given height afterwards. The horizontal distance is recorded, as is the angle of the slope. I have been trying to create an equation for u (the initial speed) from this data, but I haven't been able...
For my mechanics, I am trying to model the flight of an objected released from an angled slide, which slides (not rolls) down a distance L (constant), launches at a hight h (constant) above ground and travels a distance X, until it hits the ground. The slide's angle A is adjusted.
My...
