4.3 Exercise 3

Avg difficulty 2.5

Answer the following questions for projectile motion on level ground assuming negligible air resistance, with the initial angle being neither 0°0 ° nor 90°:90 ° : (a) Is the velocity ever zero? (b) When is the velocity a minimum? A maximum? (c) Can the velocity ever be the same as the initial velocity at a time other than at t = 0? (d) Can the speed ever be the same as the initial speed at a time other than at t = 0?
