A daring ranch hand sitting on a tree limb wishes to drop vertically onto a horse galloping under the tree. The constant speed of the horse is 10.0 m/s, and the distance from the limb to the level of the saddle is 3.00 m. (a) What must be the horizontal distance between the saddle and limb when the ranch hand makes his move? (b) For what time interval is he in the air?
A man on a motorcycle traveling at a uniform speed of 10 m/s throws an empty can straight upward relative to himself with an initial speed of 3.0 m/s. Find the equation of the trajectory as seen by a police officer on the side of the road. Assume the initial position of the can is the point where it is thrown. Ignore air resistance.
A skier leaves the end of a horizontal ski jump at 22.0 m/s and falls through a vertical distance of 3.20 m before landing. Neglecting air resistance, (a) how long does it take the skier to reach the ground? (b) How far horizontally docs the skier travel in the air before landing? (Sec Section 3.4.)

How long does it take the water to get to the building? How high on the building does the water hit? (note: this is not necessarily the highest point)
A projectile is thrown from the top of a building with an initial velocity of 30 m/s in thehorizontal direction. If the top of the building is 30 m above the ground, a) how long isthe projectile in the air? b) With what speed and angle will the projectile be moving justbefore it strikes the ground? (Hint: final speed = 38.6 m/s)
A golfer hits a golf ball so that it lands at a distance of 120 m. If s/he hits the ball sothat it has an initial trajectory 25 degrees from the horizontal,(a) what initial velocity did it have?(b) How long is it airborne.Ignore air resistance. answers a) 39m/s b) 3.4s
A rocket is launched at an angle of 58.0° above the horizontal with an initial speed of 104 m/s. The rocket moves for 3.00 s along its initial line of motion with an acceleration of 30.0 m/s2. At this time, its engines fail and the rocket proceeds to move as a projectile. What is the total time of flight? What is the horizontal range?

Determine the time when the ball reaches the highest point of its path and its vertical distance at that time.c. Determine the range from initial point to its final position.
A snowball is thrown from ground level (by someone in a hole) with initial speed v0 at an angle of 45° relative to the (level) ground, on which the snowball later lands. If the launch angle is increased, do (a) the range and (b) the flight time increase, decrease, or stay the same?
