A cannonball is launched from the top of a flat mountainside, which slopes upwards at 35 degrees with respect to the horizontal. The cannonball exits the cannon moving at 150 m/s, at an angle of 55 degrees with respect to the horizontal. a) How much time (in seconds) elapses between the moment the cannonball is fired and the moment it lands on the mountainside. b) How far down the mountainside (in meters) does the cannonball land?

A stone is thrown horizontally from the highest point of a 95 m building and lands 115 m from the base of the building. Ignore air resistance, and use a coordinate system whose origin is at the highest point of the building, with positive y upwards and positive x in the direction of the throw. How long is the stone in the air in seconds? What must have been the initial horizontal component of the velocity, in meters per second? What is the vertical component of the velocity just before the stone hits the ground, in meters per second? What is the magnitude of the velocity of the stone just before it hits the ground, in meters per second?
A rugby player passes the ball 9.75 m across the field, where it is caught at the same height as it left his hand. At what angle was the ball thrown if its initial speed was 12.0 m/s, assuming that the smaller of the two possible angles was used? (Answer in Degrees) What other angle gives the same range? (Answer in Degrees) For the pass using the smaller of the two angles, how long is the ball in the air? (answer in Seconds)
