A certain airplane has a speed of 300.1 km/h and is diving at an angle of θ = 33.0° below the horizontal when the pilot releases a radar decoy (see the figure). The horizontal distance between the release point and the point where the decoy strikes the ground is d = 714 m. (a) How long is the decoy in the air? (b) How high was the release point?

A projectile was fired at an angle of 30.0° above the horizontal with an initial speed of 20 m/s. The same projectile was fired a second time with the sane initial speed of 20 m/s but at a different angle such that the height attained by the projectile in the second launch is one half of the horizontal distance covered by the projectile in the first launch. At what angle was the projectile launched second time?
A projectile is launched from a height of 5 m with an initial speed of 32 m/s at an angle of 48⁰ to the horizontal. If vih1 is its horizontal speed 1 s after launch, and vih2 is its horizontal speed 2 s after launch, what is the value of (vih2 - vih1)²?
A fireworks show is choreographed to have two shells cross paths at a height of 154 feet and explode at an apex of 191 feet under normal weather conditions. If the shells have a launch angle θ = 56° above the horizontal, determine the common launch speed v0 for the shells, the separation distance d between the launch points A and B, and the time t from the launch at which the shells explode.
A projectile is fired from a cliff 190 feet above the water at an inclination of 45 degree to the horizontal ,with muzzle velocity of 45 feet per second. The height h of the projectile above the water is given by h(x)=-32x^2/((45)^2) +x+190 Where x is the horizontal distance of the projectile from the face of the cliff. (A) At what distance from the face of the cliff is the height of the projectile a maximum?
