4.1 Independence of horizontal and vertical motions (SB p. 154) Q: An aeroplane flies at a height h with a constant horizontal velocity u so as to fly over a cannon. When the aeroplane is directly over the cannon, a shell was fired to hit the aeroplane. Neglecting air resistance, what is the minimum speed of the shell in order to hit the aeroplane? (g = acceleration due to gravity) Example 3 Solution
