Strategic Reasoning From Movie

Agent, you have conflicting reports from two pilots. which pilot understands the physics and is cleared for this mission?
Directions: 1. Click on each pilots plan and read it 2. Then make a choice of which pilot based on the movie is correct.
This question is based on off of the movie and shows me if you can take the information and apply it to new situations like in our case
Pilot B's Plan
Pilot A's Plan

Which Pilot did you agree with

Agent, let's review the math from old case files. Select your mission difficulty and solve the problem. Solve the problem on a peice of paper then check your work.

Make sure you 1. Make a table showing all variables in the X and Y 2. Draw a diagram 3. Pick the correct equation 4. Plug in numbers and solve with units

Problem: A soccer ball is kicked horizontally at 8 m/s from a cliff. It lands 16m away from the base. How high was the cliff?

Problem: A car drives horizontally off a 50m high cliff and lands 90m away from the base. What was its horizontal speed? This is a 2 step problem follow the example problem from Mr. Mac on how to solve

What to look for/Understand

1. Describe what happens to the horizontal component of velocity while an object is in the air.
2. If an object travels at a constant velocity, how does its average velocity compare to its instantaneous velocity throughout the trip?
3. Two balls are released from the same height. One is dropped and the other is horizontally launched. Why do they reach the ground at the same time?

Problem:

A soccer ball is kicked horizontally of a 20m cliff. It takes 2s to fall. How fast was it kicked if it lands 16m away Hint: Set a table up of all the variables in the X and in the Y (follow Mr. Mac's video example)
