Challenge Problems
Push your limits with advanced challenges
A rocket is launched with an initial velocity of 100 m/s at an angle of 60° to the horizontal. Calculate the time it will take to reach the peak height.
💡 Hint: Think about when the vertical component of velocity becomes zero, and use projectile motion equations.
An object slides down a 45° incline starting from rest and accelerates at 9.8 m/s². Calculate the final velocity after 3 seconds.
💡 Hint: Consider how acceleration on an incline differs from vertical free fall.
