This is the name of the equation used to solve for the Magnitude of the resultant vector

What is the Pythagorean Theorem

100

This is the function used to solve for the Adjacent side of a Triangle

What is Cosine

100

This is how long an object falls for when it is launched horizontally from a height of 5 meters.  (g = -10 m/s2)

What is 1 second

100

This is the Model of Motion that the horizontal axis (x) follows (Constant Velocity/Uniform Acceleration)

What is Constant Velocity

100

This is the method in which we break down a resultant vector to its X and Y components.

What is Vector Resolve

200

This is the function used to find the direction of the Resultant Vector

Tangent Function

200

This is the function used to solve for the Opposite side of a Triangle

What is Sine

200

This is how far an object moves horizontally (x) when it is launched from a 5 meter high table at 2 m/s

What is a range of 2 meters from the table

200

This is the Model of Motion that the vertical axis (y) follows (Constant Velocity/Uniform Acceleration)

Uniform Acceleration

200

This is the model of motion in the horizontal (X) axis a projectile follows while it is rising up and falling back down.

What is Constant Velocity

300

This is the equation used to solve for the Angle of the Resultant Vector when we know the Adjacent and Opposite sides

What is Tan-1(Opposite/Adjacent)

300

If I know the hypotenuse of a right triangle and one of the angles, this is the equation to solve for the Adjacent side

Hyp * cos(ɵ) = x

300

This is the height an object must be to cross a gap of 3 meters if the object is launched horizontally at a velocity of 2.25 m/s

What is a height of 8.89 meters

300

This explains the time is takes for a dropped object and a horizontal projectile released from the same height to hit the ground

What is they both hit at the same time

300

This is the range a golf ball travels when launched at an angle of 25* and a velocity of 30 m/s.

What is approximately 70 meters

400

This is the resultant when a Vector going 3 meters to the East adds a Vector going 4 meters to the North.

What is 5 meters @ 53.1*

400

These two vectors add up to a Resultant vector of 28 m/s @ 47* NE

What is 19.1 m/s East + 20.5 m/s North

400

This is the VL of an object that crosses a range of 3 meters after being launched from a table 1 meter tall

What is 6.7 m/s

400

This is the only variable in a horizontal projectile problem that can be used on both the horizontal (x) and vertical (y) side of the table

What is time

400

This is the max height a golf ball reaches when it is launched at an angle of 25* at 30 m/s.  

What is approximately 8 meters high

500

This is 500 meters East + 250 meters North

What is 559.0 meters @ 26.6*

500

These two vectors add up to a Resultant Vector of 585 m @ 57* NE

What is 318.6 m East + 490.6 m North

500

This is how much further a projectile will launch horizontally from a 2 meter high table at 2 m/s versus a projectile launched from a 1 meter high table at 2 m/s

What is 0.37 meters more

500

This is known as the optimum launch angle

What is 45*

500

This is the launch velocity if an archer launches an arrow from chest height 1 meter above the ground at an angle of 10* and hits a bulls-eye 0.3 seconds later on a target 5 meters away, and that target is set up 1 meter above the ground and has a diameter of 1 meter.

What is the launch velocity is approximately 17 m/s
