A placekicker must kick a football from a point 36.0 m (about 40 yards) from the goal. Half the crowd hopes the ball will clear the crossbar, which is 3.05 m high. When kicked, the ball leaves the ground with a speed of 20.0 m/s at an angle of 53.0 to the horizontal, (a) By how much does the ball clear or fall short of clearing the crossbar? (b) Does the ball approach the crossbar while still rising or while falling?
The determined Wile E. Coyote is out once more to try to capture the elusive roadrunner. The coyote wears a new pair of power roller skates, which provide a constant horizontal acceleration of 15.0 m/s2, as shown in Figure P3.59. The coyote starts off at rest 70.0 m from the edge of a cliff at the instant the roadrunner zips in the direction of the cliff, (a) If the roadrunner moves with constant speed, find the minimum speed the roadrunner must have to reach the cliff before the coyote. (b) If the cliff is 1.00 102 m above the base of a canyon, find where the coyote lands in the canyon. (Assume his skates are still in operation when he is in flight and that his horizontal component of acceleration remains constant at 15.0 m/s2.) Figure P3.59
A person standing at the top of a hemispherical rock of radius R kicks a ball (initially at rest on the top of the rock) to give it horizontal velocity V, as shown in Figure P4.84. (a) What must be its minimum initial speed if the ball is never to hit the rock after it is kicked? (b) With this initial speed, how far from the base of the rock does the ball hit the ground?

(a) Its velocity and its acceleration are both zero, (b) Its velocity is not zero, but its acceleration is zero, (c) Its velocity is perpendicular to its acceleration, (d) Its acceleration depends on the angle at which the ball was thrown, (c) None of statements (a) through (d) is true.
You buy a plastic dart gun, and being a clever physics student you decide to do a quick calculation to find its maximum horizontal range. You shoot the gun straight up, and it takes 5.0s for the dart to land back at the barrel. What is the maximum horizontal range of your gun? Express answer using two significant figures.

Good morning, I am stuck on a homework problem. It reads: "On a distant planet, golf is just as popular as it is on earth. A golfer tees off and drives the ball 2.10 times as far as he would have on earth, given the same initial velocities on both planets. The ball is launched at a speed of 40.2 m/s at an angle of 32 ° above the horizontal. When the ball lands, it is at the same level as the tee. On the distant planet, what are (a) the maximum height and (b) the range of the ball?" I figured out how to find the vector components, but I have no idea what to do next. Thank you in advance for your help!
