The basketball player likes to release his foul shots with an initial speed v0 = 23.9 ft/sec. What 2 values of the initial angle θ (θ1 < θ2)will cause the ball to pass through the center of the rim? Neglect clearance considerations as the ball passes over the front portion of the rim.
Our pinoy pride, Kai Sotto, is now training for his upcoming 3x3 basketball tournament next year. Under International Basketball Federation (FIBA) rules, the three-point line is 6.75 meters from the center of the basket. If he will train for three-point shooting, what should be the ball's angle when he shoots the ball if he will try to shoot from a height as high as the basket with an initial velocity of 8.2 m/s? Is it 40°; 50°; 60°? How long would it take for the ball to reach the ring for each of the angles? What is the ball's maximum height for each of the angles? And how fast is the ball's horizontal and vertical initial velocities for each or the angles?
A basketball player who is 2.00 m tall is standing on the floor 10.0 m from the basket as in figure. If he shoots the ball at a 40.0° angle with the horizontal at what initial speed must he throw so that it goes through the hoop without striking the backboard? the basket height is 3.05 m.
A 2.00-m-tall basketball player is standing on the floor 10.0 m from the basket, as in Figure P3. 58. If he shoots the ball at a 40.0° angle with the horizontal, at what initial speed must he throw the basketball so that it goes through the hoop without striking the backboard? The height of the basket is 3.05 m.
A jet is flying at 120 m/s along a straight line and makes a turn along a circular path level with the ground, remaining at a constant speed. What must be true about the radius R of the circular path if the turn produces a centripetal acceleration of less than 2g on the pilot and jet?
The aorta is a major artery, rising upward from the left ventricle of the heart and curving down to carry blood to the abdomen and lower half of the body. The curved artery can be approximated as a semicircular arch whose diameter is 5.3 cm. If blood flows through the aortic arch at a speed of 0.40 m/s, what is the magnitude (in m/s2) of the blood's centripetal acceleration?

What's the horizontal distance, in meters, from the edge of the tabletop to where the object lands?
