2.3 Tricky Projectile Motion Problems: Launched at an Angle

Nelson Physics 11 Solutions Chapter 2.3 Projectile Motion We will be looking at solving projectile motion problems at a high school physics 11 level: 6. An acrobat is launched from a cannon at an angle of 60 above the horizontal. The acrobat is caught by a safety net mounted horizontally at the height from which he was initially launched. Suppose the acrobat is launched at a speed of 26 m/s. (a) How long does it take before he reaches his maximum height? (b) How long does it take in total for him to reach a point halfway back down to the ground?
