When visiting with the fan that caught the ball, he learned the ball was moving with final velocity vf=31.35m/s at an angle θf=25.5∘ below the horizontal when caught. Assume the ball encountered no air resistance, and use a Cartesian coordinate system with the origin located at the ball's initial position. Create an expression for the ball’s initial horizontal velocity, v0,x, in terms of the variables given in the problem statement. Calculate the magnitude, in meters per second, of the vertical component of the ball’s initial velocity. Calculate the magnitude, in meters per second, of the ball’s initial velocity. Find the angle above the horizontal, in degrees, at which the ball left the bat.arrow_forward

- A golfer hits a shot to a green that is elevated 2.60 m above the point where the ball is struck. The ball leaves the club at a speed of 17.3 m/s at an angle of 52.0° above the horizontal. It rises to its maximum height and then falls down to the green. Ignoring air resistance, find the speed of the ball just before it lands.arrow_forwardA golfer hits a shot to a green that is elevated 2.60 m above the point where the ball is struck. The ball leaves the club at a speed of 19.9 m/s at an angle of 34.0° above the horizontal. It rises to its maximum height and then falls down to the green. Ignoring air resistance, find the speed of the ball just before it lands.arrow_forwardThe drawing shows an exaggerated view of a rifle that has been 'sighted in' for a 91.4-meter target. If the muzzle speed of the bullet is Vo = 309 m/s, there are the two possible angles 0₁ and 02 between the rifle barrel and the horizontal such that the bullet will hit the target. One of these angles is so large that it is never used in target shooting. Give your answers as (a) the smaller angle and (b) the larger angle.

- 8. You fire a ball with an initial speed of v at an angle o above the surface of an incline, which is itself inclined at an angle e above the horizontal. a) Find the distance, measured along the incline, from the launch point to the point when the ball strikes the incline. b) What angle o gives the maximum range, measured along the incline? Ignore air resistance.arrow_forwardA baseball is thrown at an angle θ = 22° above the horizontal with an initial vertical velocity v0y = 13.5 m/s. Use a Cartesian coordinate system with the origin at the baseball's initial position.
