1. A rocket is moving with a trailer at a constant velocity of 30.0 m/s withrespect to the ground, as shown in Figurestraight upward at 40.0 m/s.(a) What is the maximum height of the rocket?(b) How far along the horizontal does the rocket move during its time offlight? In other words, does it go straight up and down and land at thesame spot? Or, does it land at a different spot? If so, where? Where isthe cart when the rocket lands?The rocket then launches40.0 m/s30.0 m/s

Coast Guard rescue swimmers are trained toleap from helicopters into the sea to save boaters in distress. Therescuers like to step off their helicopter when it is “ten and ten,”which means that it is ten feet above the water and moving forward horizontally at ten knots. What are (a) the speed and (b) thedirection of motion as a rescue swimmer enters the water following a ten and ten jump?
A projectile is thrown from the top of a building with an initial velocity of 30 m/s in thehorizontal direction. If the top of the building is 30 m above the ground, a) how long isthe projectile in the air? b) With what speed and angle will the projectile be moving justbefore it strikes the ground? (Hint: final speed = 38.6 m/s)
One of the fastest recorded pitches in major league baseball, thrown by Tim Lincecum in 2009, was clocked at 101.0 mi/h (Fig. P3.8). If a pitch were thrown horizontally with this velocity, how far would the ball fall vertically by the time it reached home plate, 60.5 ft away? Figure P3.8 Tim Lincecum throws a baseball.

(II) A projectile is fired with an initial speed of 36.6 m/sat an angle of 42.2° above the horizontal on a long flatfiring range. Determine (a) the maximum height reachedby the projectile, (b) the total time in the air, (c) the totalhorizontal distance covered (that is, the range), and (d) thespeed of the projectile 1.50 s after firing.
A quarterback passes the football downfield at 19.0 m/s. It leaves his hand 1.70 m above the ground and is caught by a receiver 36.0 m away at the same height. What is the maximum height of the ball on its way to the receiver? so y0 = 1.7m x(t) = 36m , i guess i will need angle and t to get the answer, but i have no idea how to find them
A seasoned mini golfer is trying to make par on a tricky number five hole. The golfer can complete the hole by hitting the ball from the flat section it lays on, up a 45∘45∘ ramp, over a moat, and into the hole which is ?=1.90 md=1.90 m away from the end of the ramp. If the opening of the hole and the end of the ramp are at the same height, ?=0.880 m,y=0.880 m, at what speed must the golfer hit the ball to launch the ball over the moat so that it lands directly in the hole? Assume a frictionless surface, so the ball slides without rotating. The acceleration due to gravity is 9.81 m/s2.
A baseball batter hits his home run ball with a velocity of 110 ft/s at an angle of 45° above the horizontal. If the ball hits the top of a screen at the 300 ft mark and bounces to the crowd, how high above the ground is the top of the screen?
A BMX bicycle rider takes off from a ramp at a point 2.4 mm above the ground. The ramp is angled at 40∘∘ from the horizontal, and the rider's speed is 6.3 m/sm/s when he leaves the ramp. At what horizontal distance from the end of the ramp does he land?
