HW2 (Due Thursday): Stickman is in training to be a professional stunt performer. His first stunt involves launching himself up a self-constructed parabolic ski ramp using a rocket strapped to his back. Having a background in engineering, Stickman wants to perform some preliminary calculations before attempting the stunt. Specifically: Part 1) If the rocket fires at x=0 and burns out at x=5m and results in a speed of v=10*s (where s is the path length in m and v is the speed in m/s) find the speed at the end of the ramp and the normal and tangential accelerations at the end of the ramp Part 2) Stickman also wants to know how far he will travel once he leaves the ramp. On Planet Stickman, gravity has a magnitude of 10m/s². Hints: y 5m 2 y=²x² d S= to tan 8- = dy dx dy dx dx (you may solve this on a calculator) x| HW2 (Due Thursday): Stickman is in training to be a professional stunt performer.
