4. A batter strikes a pitched ball when the center of the ball is 1.0 m above the ground. The ball leaves the bat at an angle of 45° with the ground. After 6 seconds the ball reaches the homerun wall, which is 120 m away. (a) If the wall is 11.3 m tall will the ball clear the wall? (b) Find the distance between the top of the wall and the center of the ball when the ball reaches the wall. 11.3m 45° 1m 120m

A basketball player attempts a three-point shot 10.0 m from the basket as shown in the figure below. The player shoots the ball at an angle of ? = 37.6° from horizontal, and releases the ball at a height of h = 2.12 m. The rim of the basket is at a height of H = 3.05 m. At what speed (in m/s) must the player throw the basketball so that the ball goes through the hoop without striking the backboard?

a quarterback throws a ball with a velocity of 50ft/s at an angle 40 above the horizontal towards an open receiver who is 30yd away. The pass is released 5.0 ft above the ground. Assume the receiver is stationary and will catch the ball if it reaches him. Will it be a complete pass? If not will it fall short or ''fly'' to the receiver?
To get up on the roof, a person (mass 70.0 kg) places 6.00-m aluminum ladder (mass 10.0 kg) against the house on a concrete pad with the base of ladder 2.00 m from the house. The ladder rests against a plastic rain gutter, which we can assume to frictionless. The center of ladder is 2.00 m from the bottom. The person is standing 3.00 m from the bottom. Find the normal reaction and friction forces on the ladder at its base.
MY NOTES ASK YOUR TEACHER A 2.00-m-tall basketball player is standing on the floor 10.0 m from the basket, as in the figure below. If he shoots the ball at a 40.0°angle with the horizontal, at what initial speed must he throw the basketball so that it goes through the hoop without striking the backboard? The height of the basket is 3.05 m.
In a home laundry dryer, a cylindrical tub containing wetclothes is rotated steadily about a horizontal axis, as shown inFigure P7.61. So that the clothes will dry uniformly, they aremade to tumble. The rate of rotation of the smooth-walled tubis chosen so that a small piece of cloth will lose contact withthe tub when the cloth is at an angle of θ = 68.0° above thehorizontal. If the radius of the tub is r = 0.330 m, what rate ofrevolution is needed in revolutions per second?
An old Biblical story tells of David, a small warrior engaged in man‑to‑man combat with Goliath, a much larger adversary. In the story, David uses a sling to increase the speed of a projectile (in this case a rock), striking Goliath in the forehead and killing him. The type of sling often used in such combat consists of a long strip of cloth with a pouch halfway down its length. The rock is positioned in the pouch, with the warrior holding both ends of the sling. By whirling the sling in a horizontal circle, a warrior can release one end of the sling, thereby allowing the projectile to fly in a straight line at high speed. Historically, warriors and hunters typically used a vertical circle, but the circle used here is horizontal for simplicity. In this problem, assume that the sling, when unfolded, was roughly R=5.18 ft in total length and that the rock weighed a half a pound. If David whirled the sling such that the sling was at an angle θ=5.03∘ below the horizontal, with what…
The projectile that makes an oblique shot is divided into two equal parts at h = 20m height, which is the highest point of its orbit. After t = 1s after the explosion, the first part falls L1 = 1000m away from the firing point in the horizontal direction and just below the explosion point. How long after the second piece explodes and how far will it fall from the firing point? (Neglect the air friction.), (g=10m/s^2)
