A ball is thrown horizontally, with a speed of 12 m/s, from the top of a 4.5 meter tall hill. How far from the point on the ground directly below the launch point does the ball strike the ground?

An African swallow carrying a very small coconut is flying horizontally with a speed of 18.0 m/s. If it drops the coconut from a height of 34.5 m above Earth, at what horizontal distance from the release point will the coconut strike the ground?

A potato is launched from the ground at an 73 degree angle with a velocity of 48 m/s.   How many seconds is the projectile in the air?

During a baseball game the ball is hit at home base 1 meter above ground level with a bat. After having traveled a horizontal distance of 30 m, it is 20 m above ground level. An outfielder runs to meet the ball and catches it as he dives, just 10 cm from the ground. The outfielder is 80 m away from home base when he catches the ball. Assuming the path of the ball is approximately parabolic, what is the greatest height the ball reaches?

A soccer ball is kicked at an angle of 60° from the ground with an initial velocity of 70m/s. How long is the ball in the air? How far does the ball travel horizontally? As its peak height, how far is the ball from its initial point?

A ball is thrown upward from the top of a 40.0 m tall building. The ball's initial speed is 12.0 m/s. At the same instant, a person is running on the ground at a distance of 23.0 m from the building. What must be the average speed of the person if he is to catch the ball at the bottom of the building?

A ball is launched from the top of a building 91.1 meters above the ground. The ball is launched with a speed of 10.1 m/s at an angle 50.3 degrees above horizontal. How long, in seconds, does it take the ball to reach the ground?

A toy cannon is located 15.0 m horizontally away from the base of a 10.5 m high building. A ball is fired from the cannon at an angle of 60.0°, and it passes some unknown distance above the top edge of the building, 1.5 s after it is being fired. (a) What should be the initial velocity of the ball so that it clears the building?(b) How far above the edge of the building is the ball when it passes over the top edge of the building?(c) Is the ball going down or still going up, at the point where it clears the wall?Justify your answer.(d) If the launch point is at the origin, what the x, y coordinates of the location at which the ball strikes the roof of the building?

A ball is tossed from an upper-story window of a building. The ball is given an initial velocity of 8.10 m/s at an angle of 18.0° below the horizontal. It strikes the ground 5.00 s later. (a) How far horizontally from the base of the building does the ball strike the ground? m(b) Find the height from which the ball was thrown. m(c) How long does it take the ball to reach a point 10.0 m below the level of launching? s
