A firefighter, a distance d from a burning building, directs a stream of water from a fire hose at angle i above the horizontal as shown in Figure P3.16. If the initial speed of the stream is vi, at what height h does the water strike the building? Figure P3.16
An archer fish spies a meal of a grasshopper sitting on a long stalk of grass at the edge of the pond in which he is swimming. The fish is to successfully spit at and strike the grasshopper, which is 0.200 m away horizontally and 0.335 m above his mouth. What is the minimum speed at which the archer fish must spit?
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 fireman d = 50.0 m away from a burning building directs a stream of water from a ground-level fire hose at an angle of θi = 30.0° above the horizontal as shown in Figure P3. 32. If the speed of the stream as it leaves the hose is vi = 40.0 m/s, at what height will the stream of water strike the building?
a rescue plane flies at 198 km/h (= 55.0 m/s) and constant height h = 500 m toward a point directly over a victim, where a rescue capsule is to land. (a) What should be the angle f of the pilot’s line of sight to the victim when the capsule release is made?

A projectile is fired from ground level above the horizontal on an airless planet where g = 10m / s * 2 The initial x and y component
An enemy ship is on the east side of a mountain island, as shown in the figure. The enemy ship has maneuvered to within d1 = 2077 m of the h = 1940 m high mountain peak and can shoot projectiles with an initial speed of vi = 244 m/s. If the western shoreline is horizontally d2 = 273 m from the peak, what are the distances from the western shore at which a ship can be safe from the bombardment of the enemy ship?
