Some cats can be trained to jump from one location to another and perform other tricks. Kit the cat is going to jump through a hoop. He begins on a wicker cabinet at a height of 1.750 m above the floor and jumps through the center of a vertical hoop, reaching a peak height 3.125 m above the floor. a. With what initial velocity did Kit leave the cabinet if the hoop is at a horizontal distance of 1.544 m from the cabinet? b. If Kit lands on a bed at a horizontal distance of 3.587 m from the cabinet, how high above the ground is the bed?

While strolling downtown on a Saturday Afternoon, you stumble across an old car show. As you are walking along an alley toward a main street, you glimpse a particularly stylish Alpha Romeo pass by. Tall buildings on either side of the alley obscure your view, so you see the car only as it passes between the buildings. Thinking back to your physics class, you realize that you can calculate the cars acceleration. You estimate the width of the alleyway between the two buildings to be 4 m. The car was in view for 0.5 s. You also heard the engine rev when the car started from a red light, so you know the Alpha Romeo started from rest 2 s before you first saw it. Find the magnitude of its acceleration.
During the battle of Bunker Hill, Colonel William Prescott ordered the American Army to bombard the British Army camped near Boston. The projectiles had an initial velocity of 45 m/s at 35 above the horizon and an initial position that was 35 m higher than where they hit the ground. How far did the projectiles move horizontally before they hit the ground? Ignore air resistance.
A During the battle of Bunker Hill, Colonel William Prescott ordered the American Army to bombard the British Army camped near Boston. The projectiles had an initial velocity of v measured in meters per second at an angle above the horizon and an initial position that was h higher than where they hit the ground. How far did the projectiles move horizontally before they hit the ground? Ignore air resistance.

(a) A daredevil is attempting to jump his motorcycle over a line of buses parked end to end by driving up a 32° ramp at a speed of 40.0 m/s (144 km/h) . How many buses can he clear if the top of the takeoff ramp is at the same height as the bus tops and the buses are 20.0 m long? (b) Discuss what your answer implies about the margin of error in this act—that is, consider how much greater the range is than the horizontal distance he must travel to miss the end of the last bus. (Neglect air resistance.)
