Week5

1)First, the pelicans initial speed needs to be found. 2) Plug in givens into the equation of y-y0 = Vo*t+.5*a*t^2. 3)Now solve for t. It is now possible to solve for the horizontal component knowing t. 4) Because the this is all done perfectly horizontal Vox = Vo.

5)Use the new speed. 6) Plug back in for new height and solve for t. 7) With new time and old velocity, solve for the horizontal displacement or X-Xo.
