This is an interactive homework problem for introductory physics students relating to motion in two dimensions. Given initial velocity and distance traveled by an arrow shot from a bow, students must determine the time elapsed before it hits the target. A user-activated "help" sequence is provided for each step of the problem-solving, from conceptual analysis through quantitative calculation. Immediate feedback is received for both correct and incorrect responses.

This item is part of a larger collection of interactive homework problems for introductory physics. See Related items on this page for a link to the full collection.
