Hint

Hint for written homework 2.
  1. Part 2 is maybe tougher to think through, but the math is not that hard.
  2. Part 1 will require some quadratic formula to solve, but part 2 does not.
  3. Equations for x(t) and y(t) of the artillery round are not the only equations you'll need.
  4. You can make a nice diagram on a piece of standard graph paper (in landscape mode), using 1 block for each kilometer.
  5. Make use of the four significant figures in your calculations!
