66. At serve, a tennis player aims to hit the ball horizontally. What minimum speed is required for the ball to clear the 0.90-m-high net about 15.0 m from the server if the ball is "launched" from a height of 2.50 m? Where will the ball land if it just clears the net (and will it be "good" in the sense that it lands within 7.0 m of the net)? How long will it be in the air? See Fig. 3–54. 2.50 m 15.0 m -7.0 m– FIGURE 3-54 Problem 66.

Drag the cannon downwards so it is at ground level, or 0 mm (which represents the initial height of the object), then fire the pumpkin straight upward (at an angle of 90∘90∘) with an initial speed of 14 m/sm/s. How long does it take for the pumpkin to hit the ground?
A soccer player kicks a ball 30.0 meters toward the goal, the ball just passes over the goal at 2.4 meters above ground at an angle of 40degrees. What is the initial speed of the ball if it just passes over the goal?
A baseball player hits a baseball when it’s 1m above the ground giving it an initial velocityof 61m/s at 18◦ above the horizontal. The catchers on the other team are very good at theirjobs and have a 100% success rate, so a homerun can only be achieved if the batter hits theball over a 2m fence 75m away from the plate. Does the batter get a homerun? (assume the batter is at the plate)
A 2.54m tall tennis player is 11.72m away from the net of 0.90m inheight. If the ball clears a height of 0.15m above the net and the player strikes theball horizontally from his initial position, determine: a. velovity of a ball b. the distance measured from the net where the ball hits the other side of the court
By throwing a ball at an angle of 45, a girl can throw the ball a maximum horizontal distance R on a level field. How far can she throw the tame ball vertically upward? Assume her muscles give the ball the same speed in each case. (Is this assumption valid?)
A World War II bomber flies horizontally over level terrain with a speed of 275 m/s relative to the ground and at an altitude of 3.00 km The bombardier releases one bomb. (a) How far does the bomb travel horizontally between it release and its impact on the ground? Ignore the effects of air resistance. (b) The pilot maintains the planes original course, altitude, and speed through a storm of flak. Where is the plane when the bomb hits the ground? (c) The bomb hits the target seen in the telescopic bombsight at the moment of the bombs release. At what angle from tin- vertical was the bombsight set?
A hawk is flying horizontally at 10.0 m/s in a straight line, 200 m above the ground. A mouse it has been carrying struggles free its talons. The hawk continues on its path at the same speed for 2.00 s before attempting to retrieve its prey. To accomplish the retrieval, it drives in a straight line- at constant speed and recaptures the mouse 3.00 m above the ground. (a) Assuming no air resistance acts on the mouse, find the driving speed of the hawk. (b) What angle did the hank make with the horizontal during its descent? (c) For what time interval did the mouse experience free fall?
A soccer goal is 2.44 m high. A player kicks the ball at a distance 10 m from the goal at an angle of 25 . The ball hits the crossbar at the top of the goal. What is the initial speed of the soccer ball?
In 2007, Michael Carter (U.S.) set a world record in the shot put with a throw of 24.77 m. What was the initial speed of the shot if he released it at a height of 2.10 m and threw it at an angle of 38.0° above the horizontal? (Although the maximum distance for a projectile on level ground is achieved at 45° when air resistance is neglected, the actual angle to achieve maximum range is smaller; thus, 38° will give a longer range than 45° in the shot put.)
A projectile is fired horizontally - think about what this means about the initial y-velocity (viy) - at a velocity of 5.61 m/s. It is fired from a height of 1.04 meters. How far horizontally does the projectile go before it hits the ground?
