The mean distance of the moon from Earth is miles. Assuming that the orbit of the moon around Earth is circular and that 1 revolution takes 27.3 days, find the linear speed of the moon. Express your answer in miles per hour.
Find the exact value of:
Projectile Motion - An object is propelled upward at an angle between and to the horizontal with an initial
velocity of feet per second from the base of an inclined plane that makes an angle of 45° with the horizontal. See the
illustration. If air resistance is ignored, the distance R that it travels up the inclined plane as a function of is given by
(a) Find the distance R that the object travels along the inclined plane if the initial velocity is 32 feet per second and
(b) Graph R = Rif the initial velocity is 32 feet per second.
(c) What value of makes R largest?
