#9) Let's set down as the positive direction of motion, just for fun. A coconut is launched by mechanical means nearly vertically upward from a point near the edge of the roof of the Science Building. It just misses the edge of the roof on the way down (when it is in free fall) and passes a point a distance 10.0 m below its starting point at a time 4.75 s. Air resistance may be ignored. Use the magnitude of the acceleration due to gravity as 9.80 m/s² and report answers to 3 sig figs for parts A-E below. Consider this as a one-dimensional problem. Show starting equations, do algebra first, and then plug numbers in last for each part, ECANSU. A) What is the initial velocity of the baseball? Show your work. ECANSU.

A clown juggle balls while doing other activities. In one act, she throws a ball vertically upward, and while it is in the air, she runs to and from a table 5.5 m away at constant speed of 2.5 m/s, returning just in time to catch the falling ball. With what minimum initial speed must she throw the ball upward to accomplish the act?
A ball thrown vertically from the Highway is shot 3.0 s later by a person on a balcony located 14 m from the road floor. What is the initial speed of the ball?
A ball thrown vertically from the Highway is managed 3.0 s later by a person on a balcony located 14 m from the track floor. What is the initial speed of the ball?
A celebrated Mark Twain story has motivated contestants in the Calaveras County Jumping Frog Jubilee, where frog jumps as long as 2.2 m have been recorded. If a frog jumps 2.2 m and the launch angle is 45, find (a) the frogs launch speed and (b) the time the frog spends in the air. Ignore air resistance.
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?
Give an example in which velocity is zero yet acceleration is not.
A very strong, but inept, shot putter puts the shot straight up vertically with an initial velocity of 11.0 m/s. How long does he have to get out of the way if the shot was released at a height of 2.20 m, and he is 1.80 m tall?
A rocket is fired at a speed of 83.0m/s from ground level, at an angle of 66.0degrees above the horizontal. The rocket is fired towards an 28.8m high wall, which is located 25.0m away. The rocket attains its launch speed in a neglibly short period of time, after which its engines shut down and the rocket coasts. By how much time does the rocket clear the top of the wall?
A chinook salmon has a maximum underwater speed of 3.58 m/s, but it can jump out of water with a speed of 6.26 m/s. To move upstream past a waterfall, the salmon does not need to jump to the top of the fall, but only to a point in the fall where the water speed is less than 3.58 m/s; it can then swim up the fall for the remaining distance. Because the salmon must make forward progress in the water, let's assume it can swim to the top if the water speed is 3.00 m/s. (a) If water has a speed of 2.02 m/s as it passes over a ledge, how far below the ledge will the water be moving with a speed of 3.00 m/s? (Note that water undergoes projectile motion once it leaves the ledge. The water's velocity is initially horizontal as it passes over the ledge. Enter the magnitude of the distance only.) Your response differs from the correct answer by more than 10%. Double check your calculations. _______m (b) If the salmon is able to jump vertically upward from the base of the fall, what is the maximum…
An ant crawls in a straight line at a constant speed of 0.24 m/s for a distance of 3.0 m, beginning in the corner of a square classroom. It then turns exactly 90 degrees to the right, and proceeds an additional 4.0 m with a constant speed of 0.44 m/s, reaching the other corner of the same wall from which it began. What was the ant’s average speed for the full trip from corner to corner?
I just wonder how can you get the final acceleration for projectile motion should you just add the acceleration for x and y axis?
If a human jumping can be treated as a projectile, what is the maximum range obtainable by a person if he has a take-off speed of 9.55 m/s? Assume negligible air resistance and the person begins and ends their jump at ground height.
