A daredevil is shot out of a cannon at 45.0 to the horizontal with an initial speed of 25.0 m/s. A net is positioned a horizontal distance of 50.0 m from the cannon. At what height above the cannon should the net be placed in order to catch the daredevil?
A ball is thrown straight upward and returns to the throwers hand after 3.00 s in the air. A second ball thrown at an angle of 30.0 with the horizontal reaches the same maximum height as the first ball, (a) At what speed was the first ball thrown? (b) At what speed was the second ball thrown?
When a field goal kicker kicks a football as hard as he can at 45 to the horizontal, the ball just clears the 3-m- high crossbar of the goalposts 45.7 m away. (a) What is the maximum speed the kicker can impart to the football? (b) In addition to clearing the crossbar, the football must be high enough in the air early during its flight to clear the reach of the onrushing defensive lineman. If the lineman is 4.6 m away and has a vertical reach of 2.5 m, can he block the 45.7-m field goal attempt? (c) What if the lineman is 1.0 m away?
A dart gun is fired while being held horizontally at a height of 1.00 m above ground level and while it is at rest relative to the ground. The dart from the gun travels a horizontal distance of 5.00 m. A college student holds the same gun in a horizontal position while sliding down a 45.0 incline at a constant speed of 2.00 m/s. How far w ill the dart travel if the student fires the gun when it is 1.00 m above the ground?
A boy throws a baseball onto a roof and it rolls back down and off the roof with a speed of 3.75 m/s. If the roof is pitched at 35.0 below the horizon and the roof edge is 2.50 m above the ground, find (a) the time the baseball spends in the air, and (b) the horizontal distance from the roof edge to the point where the baseball lands on the ground.
A father demonstrates projectile motion to his children by placing a pea on his forks handle and rapidly depressing the curved tines, launching the pea to heights above the dining room table. Suppose the pea is launched at 8.25 m/s at an angle of 75.0 above the table. With what speed does the pea strike the ceiling 2.00 in above the table?

A rescue plane drops a package of emergency rations to a stranded troops in an isolated island as explorers, as shown in figure 4.15. If the plane is traveling horizontally at 40.0 m/s and is 100 m above the ground, where does the package strike the ground relative to the point at which it was released? What are the horizontal and vertical components of the velocity of the package just before it hits the ground?
A stone is thrown horizontally from a cliff 30m high with an initial speed of 20m/s. How far from the cliff does the stone strike the ground? What is the vertical velocity of the stone as it hits the ground? What is the horizontal velocity of the stone as it hits the ground? What is the final velocity (speed and direction) of the stone as it hits the ground? Fill our the chart Horizontal Vertical Vox = voy = x = x = t = t = a = vfy =
A tennis player hits a ball when it is 0.4 metres above the ground and 3 metres from the net, giving it a velocity of 15 m s–1 at 60° to the horizontal. The tennis player's opponent who has run to the net can reach balls to a height of 2.7 metres. Will he be able to reach this ball?
