You're playing a cartoony racing video game, with a character on a motorcycle. You drive your character off a ledge at 15 m/s. The next ledge for the character's bike to land on is 25 m away (horizontally) and 12 m below. Assume the video game has realistic physics coded into it, except that acceleration due to gravity is only 8.0 m/s^2. a) will your character land on the next platform? b) whether they land or not, find their velocity (magnitude and direction) as they either land on or pass through the 12 m below position.

A river flows with a uniform velocity v. A person in a motorboat travels 1.30km upstream, at which time she passes a log floating by. Always with the same throttle setting, the boater continues to travel upstream for another 51.3min and then returns downstream to her starting point, which she reaches just as the same log does. Calculate the velocity of the river.

You fire a ball with an initial speed V0 at an angle (ϕ) above the surface of an incline, which is itself inclined at an angle (θ) above the horizontal (Figure below). a. Find the distance, measured along the incline, from the launch point to the point when the ball strikes the incline. b. What angle ϕ gives the maximum range, measured along the incline? Ignore air resistance. c. Since there's no air resistance, this is a problem in projectile motion. The goal is to find the point where the ball's parabolic trajectory intersects the incline. It is best to choose the x-axis to be horizontal and direct to the right, the y-axis to be vertical and direct to the up, and the origin to be at the point where the ball is fired. In the projectile equations, the launch angle α0 is measured from the horizontal. What is this angle in terms of (θ) and (ϕ)?
