I planned on putting some math to work when I visited Golden Gate Park along with my new kite. I made sure my kite was always 100ft above the ground and I was able to calculate that the kite was moving horizontally at a speed of 9ft/s. Then I proceeded to calculate the rate at which the angle between the horizontal and the string was decreasing when I had let out about 250 ft of string. Can you help me determine what that rate was?

Identify: (a) The established set point for the controlled condition (b) The...

You must write, draw, do some math, document your work, and reﬂect on your result. According to sources that should know these things, a piece of an object hit by a projectile can move toward the launch site rather than away from the launch site. A projectile is launched, strikes a target, the target splits into two pieces and one piece (allegedly) under certain circumstances moves back toward the launch site. Does this make sense? Rather than argue about common...
