Yes, it is true to say that a projectile has zero acceleration at its peak.

Because the highest height, which the object will reach is known as the peak of the object's motion. The increase of the height will last, until vy = 0.,

Is centripetal acceleration a uniform acceleration give reason?

No it is not because its direction is constantly changing. It is not a constant force. Force has direction as well as magintude and while it magnitude is constant its direction is not.

Explain what is on the y-axis and x-axis in order to get acceleration?

In case of uniform acceleration,the graph will be a straight line with a +ve slope ,if we are taking velocity along Y-axis and time along X-axis.hence it's slope will give u acceleration.


Give reason why uniform circular motion is considered as accelerated motion?

Because within circular motion, acceleration is constant

What is the formula to find the mass when they give you the acceleration and mass?

You ignore the acceleration, and just give them the mass. Now, if they give you the acceleration and the applied force, you could use m = F/a.


What angle for firing projectiles gives longest time?

45 degrees to the horizontal will give the maximum flight time for a projectile. If a projectile was fired at 90 degrees to the horizontal, (straight upwards) the projectile will go straight upwards (ignoring the shape, form and aerodynamic properties of the projectile). Likewise if you were to fire a projectile at 0 degrees to the horizontal, the projectile would follow said course, IF gravity was not in effect; a projectile needs some form of vertical velocity to overcome gravity. Hence why 45 degrees will give you the longest distance and consequently flight time.

How do you find the firing angle for a projectile given the targets x and y coordinates and initial velocity I would like to do it without calculus if possible.?

They height y of the projectile is given by the function y = vosin(0)t + 1/2gt2, where vo is the initial velocity of the projectile, 0 is the firing angle, t is the time, and g is the acceleration of gravity (-9.81m/s2). The range x of the projectile is given by the function x = vocos(0)t. Rearranging this last equation for time yeilds t = x/(vocos(0)); this will give us the length of time the projectile takes to reach the target. Substituting this into the first equation yeilds: y = vosin(0)[x/(vocos(0))] + 1/2g[x/(vocos(0))]2 this can be simplified further but it is not necessary to do so; plugging it the x and y coordinates, the initial velocity, and the acceleration of gravity, you should be able to solve for 0, which is now the only unknown.
