Kinematics Question: Afigther plane flies horizontally at a constant speed of 200m/s. It carries a cannon inclined at an angle of 30 degress below the horizontal.
(a) If it takes 10s for teh projectile which has a muzzle velocity of 500m/s (with respect to the plane) to reach a target on the ground, find the height at which the plane is flying.

I don't understand the significance of the phase 'with respect to the plane' like what will change without this phase and what will change with this phase? What is muzzle velocity?
I got an answer of 2990.5m, is it correct?

(b)How far ahead of the target must the pilot fire the cannon to get a direct hit?
I got an answer of 4330m but I didn't take into account the speed of the plane so is the answer correct?

(c)Find the horizontal and vertical compotents of the velocity of the projectile just before it hits the target.
I got horizontal: 433m/s and vertical: 348.1m/s. Is it correct?

my friend sais that time is just an illusion invented by humans to make life more organized so they can just say come at 9:00 instead of saying come when the moon apears to be three inches in the air but then we advansed it to be like no time no life is that true.

I am just wondering if any current vet students or recent veterinary graduates would share what type and how much experience they had before applying to vet school, as well as any suggestions on what I should do/get before applying. I will be filling out the application next fall and will have majors in Biology and Wildlife management and minors in Chemistry and Captive wildlife ( I am planning on going in to exotic/zoo medicine)

As we all know our climate is getting hotter and the ice caps are melting causing waters to rise. Also due to the climate shifts deadly supper storms have appeared, and will increase exponentially as temperatures rise. Further causes of ice melt down will result in sea levels rising and costal cities shall flood causing human relocations on massive levels. I believe as it progresses the earth will shift violently due to increased pressures on the plates in turn creating or speeding up the process of volcanic activity and earthquakes. I surmise that in places the waters will flash boil killing much of the oceans sea life and cause severe torrential rains lasting for months even maybe years at a time. In turn due to violent earth eruptions the possibilities of a nuclear winter could eventually put the earth in a cooling trend repairing the planet but most of the life on earth would be destroyed and whoever is left will have to rebuild. As we all know we use up this planet and abuse it daily we are only destroying ourselves.

Stars, Planets, Black Holes or what?

I personally like the theories that goes with it because they can be very out there and makes me think very deep.

What do you like the most about astronomy?

If you could add some answers to these other questions before I put them to vote, thanks.

I am a senior at high school. My dreams are to become a future doctor. I am currently taking AP Calculus, AP Chemistry, AP Physics, and took AP Biology. I feel that I am prepared to pre-med. My question is after all the hard work how did you approach the MCAT. If you passed, whats it like in med school. How hard is it? homework and hours wise? I am a very independent person and work till 1am to get my work done. Tell me about life in med school.

In the New Jersey and Nevada gaming casinos, craps is a popular gambling game. One of the many bets available is the "Hard-way 8." A $1 bet in this fashion will win the player $4 if in the game the pair of dice come up 4 and 4 prior to one of the other ways of totaling 8. For a $1 bet, what is the expected result?
If you can get the answer please explain how you got it. Thanks

As I was driving to work this morning I noticed these two almost rainbow-like things on the both sides of the sun. They were slightly elliptical, I think- I couldn't stare at them too long since I'd forgotten my sunglasses. Are these what people call solar flares? That sounds kind of spacey for what I'm talking about. I took some pictures with my camera phone:
