Jonah is reading a novel that describes an athlete participating in an archery competition. The athlete is 186 cm tall and hits an amazing shot where they fire the arrow completely horizontally and it lands 51 m away from them. 1) neglecting air resistance and drag, what must the initial speed of the arrow be? 2) if the arrow was instead fired at an angle of 45°, how far would it have travelled if it was launched at 187m/s?
PROBLEM:In a basketball tournament, a tall player shoots the ball so that it leaves his hands at an initial speed of 35.0m/s and with an estimated an angle of 50.1o. Neglect the height of the basketball player, a. Determine the location of the ball and its velocity (magnitude and direction) at t = 2.00s.b. Determine the time when the ball reaches the highest point of its path and its vertical distance at that time.c. Determine the range from initial point to its final position.

A cliff of height 910 m in a park .Assume a jumper runs off the cliff with a speed of 5 m/sec at an angle of 100 and enjoys a free fall until he is 150 m above the valley floor, at which time she opens her parachute. How long is the jumper in free fall? (Ignore air resistance) It is important to be as far away from the cliff as possible before opening the chute. How far away from the cliff is the jumper when she opens her chute?
A movie stunt driver on a motorcycle can fly over a wide ditch with certain angle and initial speed. However, if he speeds horizontally, will he crosses this ditch? Consider his motion as projectile, and the two sides of ditch have equal altitude. Yes, he will if his initial velocity is big enough No, theoretically he will never cross this ditch It depends on the weather condition It depends on how powerful of his motorcycle Is it 1,2,3, or 4
A player kicks the ball at an angle of 30oto the vertical axis at an initial velocity of 120m/s.

A boy stands on a diving board and tosses a stone into a swimming pool. The stone is thrown from a height of 2.50 m above the water surface with a velocity of 4.00 m/s at an angle of 60.0° above the horizontal. As the stonestrikes the water surface, it immediately slows down to exactly half the speed it had when it struck the water and maintains that speed while in the water. After the stone enters the water, it moves in a straight line in the direction of the velocity it had when it struck the water. If the pool is 3.00 m deep, how much time elapses between when the stone is thrown and when it strikes the bottom of the pool?
) A stone thrown off a bridge 40 m above a river has an initial velocity 7.6 m/s at an angle of 42 degrees below the horizontal. (a) How much time does it take for the stone to reach the water? s (b) If the beginning point is where the stone is thrown, and the ending point is where the stone hits the water, find the x-component of the displacement of the stone. m (C)If the beginning point is where the stone is thrown, and the ending point is where the stone hits the water, find the y-component of the displacement of the stone. m
An athlete performing the long jump tries to achieve the maximum distance from the point of takeoff to the first point of touching the ground. After the jump, rather than land upright, she extends her legs forward as in the photo. How does this affect the time in the air? How does this give the jumper a longer range?
From the top of a cliff, a person throws a stone straight downward. The initial speed of the stone just after leaving the person's hand is 9.9 m/s. (a) What is the acceleration (magnitude and direction) of the stone while it moves downward, after leaving the person's hand? Also, is the stone's speed increasing or decreasing? (b) After 0.48 s, how far beneath the top of the cliff is the stone? (Give just the distance fallen, that is, a magnitude.)
A player kicks a football at an angle of 35° with the horizontal and with an initial velocity of 14.8 m/s. A second player standing at a distance of 26.0 m from the first player in the direction of the kick starts running to meet the ball at the instant it is kicked. (a) At what rate should the second player accelerate to catch the ball? (b) What would be the speed of the second player upon catching the ball?
A ball is thrown with an initial speed of 20 ?/? from one end of a horizontal platform with a length of 48 ? and a height of 32 ? at angle of 37° to the the horizontal. At the same time a man who is standing on the ground starts from rest and moves with a constant acceleration of ? (see Figure). (a)Find the time of flight of the ball (b) What should be the acceleration of the man so that he can hold the ball before it falls? cos53=sin37=0.6 cos37=sin53=0.8 g=9.8 m/s2
