9. (Target K1) You are sitting under a tree, enjoying a nice summer day. Unbeknownst to you, your friend is perched a branch, 3.5 m above the ground, with a water balloon that they drop directly above your head. When sitting, your head is 0.75 m above the ground. You hear your friend laugh and look up to see the water balloon when it is 1.5 m above your head. (a) At this time, what is the speed of the water balloon? (b) How much time does it take the water balloon to reach your head, from the time that you

Tom is moving at 19.1 m/s i-hat relative to Ann. Bob is moving at 17.1 m/s i-hat relative to Ann. Bob is moving at 27.6 m/s i-hat relative to Sue. What is the velocity of Bob relative to Tom?
A baseball fan sitting in the "cheap seats" is d = 171 m from home plate (see the figure below). How much time elapses between the instant the fan sees a batter hit the ball and the moment the fan hears the sound? (Assume the speed of sound is 344 m/s, and the vertical distance can be ignored.)
You are in a submarine on the water surface of the ocean. Your radar spots a giant squid at rest that you want to explore. The squid is located 200 m straight ahead on the water surface and 300 m below the sea level. 1 . Your submarine can travel at 1.00 m/s below water. At what angle would you have to dive into the water to directly reach the squid and how long would it take you? 2 . Instead, you could sail 200 m on the water surface and then dive 300 m straight down to the squid. What velocity on the water surface would you need to be faster than in b)?
You are target shooting using a toy gun that fires a small ball at a speed of 15 m/sm/s. When the gun is fired at an angle of 25 ∘∘ above horizontal, the ball hits the bull's-eye of a target at the same height as the gun. Then the target distance is halved. At what angle must you aim the gun to hit the bull's-eye in its new position? (Mathematically there are two solutions to this problem; the physically reasonable answer is the smaller of the two.)
You are about to take a great picture of fog rolling into San Francisco from the middle of the Golden Gate Bridge, 400 feet above the water. Whoops! You accidently lean too far over the safety rail and drop your camera. Your friend quips, “Well at least you know calculus; you can figure out the velocity with which the camera is going to hit the water.” If the camera’s height, s(t), in feet, over the water after t seconds is s(t) = 400 - 16t2, describe how to determine the camera’s velocity at the instant of its demise.
A pirate ship is rapidly approaching your fort! You bravely station yourself at the mounted cannon but find to your dismay that you have only one cannonball. Not only this, yoour cannon is rusted in place and can only fire at an angle theta = 10.0 degrees up from the horizontal. To prevent a siege on your fort, you must fire your cannon at exactly the correct moment to strike the enemy ship at the base of its mast. You know that your cannon is stationed on a wall a height h = 8.00 m above your target , and that it fires at a speed of v1 = 205 m/s. You will use this information to determine the distance d at which the pirate ship is in your cannon's range. Part 1: Determine the initial vertical velocity v1,y and the initial horizonal velocity v1,x of the cannonball. Part 2: If the cannonball starts its trajectory at a height y1 = h, determine its height y2 at the top of its arc and the time t2 it takes to get there. Part 3: How long will it take for the cannonball to fall from the…
A laptop is projected horizontally from the rooftop of a condominium 138 m high. The laptop hits the ground at a point 49 m horizontally away from and below the point of release. What is the speed of the laptop just before it strikes the ground? Use g=9.8 m/s2 . Round off answer up to two decimal places. Include units (abbreviation only).
A projectile with a velocity of 450 m/s is shot from the top of a 100-meter-high cliff at a 45-degree angle to the horizontal. Determine the range in a horizontal plane across the base of the cliff based on this issue.
One strategy in a snowball fight is to throw a snowball at a high angle over level ground. Then, while your opponent is watching that snowball, you throw a second one at a low angle timed to arrive before or at the same time as the first one. Assume both snowballs are thrown with a speed of 25.0 m/s. The first is thrown at an angle of 70.0 with respect to the horizontal. (a) At what angle should the second snowball be thrown to arrive at the same point as the first? (b) How many seconds later should the second snowball be thrown after the first for both to arrive at the same time?

A jet plane is observed 400ft above the ground and is flying 180 mph to the west. A man jumps out of the plane creating a projectile motion and recorded that he is descending at a constant velocity of 6 ft/s after he reached an observable distance from the ground. If the man is to reach the ground 37 seconds after his immediate jump off the plane, determine the range of the initial position of the plane to the target landing of the man in the ground. a) 601.29 ft b) 1111.31 ft c) 28.38 ft d) 1000.12 ft
