Claude Fable 5.1 reasoning
Horizontal motion with linear drag: m dv_x/dt = −c v_x, so v_x = v₀cos60° · e^(−ct/m). x(t) = (m v₀ cos60°/c)(1 − e^(−ct/m)) Values: m = 0.2 kg, c = 0.1 kg/s, so m/c = 2 s and ct/m = 1 at t = 2 s. v₀cos60° = 270 × 0.5 = 135 m/s x = 135 × 2 × (1 − 1/2.7) = 270 × (1.7/2.7) = 170 m
