cannon is aimed across Bottomless Gorge at an angle of 22.6° above the horizontal. The mouth of the cannon is 1.00 m above the ground. It shoots a ball whose velocity upon leaving the canon is 130 m/s. a What are the horizontal and vertical components of the initial velocity of the ball? b. What is the velocity of the ball after 2.00 s? (don't forget angle to horizontal) C. If the ball strikes the other side of the gorge 55.0 m below the mouth of the cannon, how wide is Bottomless Gorge? (1320 m)

ACTIVITY 3 PROBLEM SOLVING CIRCULAR MOTION Circular motion is another example of two-dimensional motion. When we analyze objects in circular motion, three quantities are used to portray it, hence speed, acceleration, and force. These factors are responsible in affecting the behavior of an object that is moving in circular path. Read, analyze, and solve the following problems using the GUFSA template. Show your complete solution. Round off your final answer to the nearest hundredths. 1. A 750-kg car moving at 8 m/s takes a turn around a circle with a radius of 20.0 m. Determine: a. the acceleration of the car b. the net force acting upon the car
