A golf ball is hit at a 64o angle with an initial velocity of 20 m/s. What are the x and y components of its initial velocity? How high did the golf ball go? How long was the golf ball in the air? How far did the golf ball go? What other angle would give this distance? (think of your lab) How would you decide which angle would be better to use?
A basketball player shoots toward a basket 5 m away and 3.0 m above the floor. If the ball is released 1.8 m above the floor at an angle of 52 degrees above the horizontal, what must the initial speed be if it were to go through the basket? Write your answer in m/s with one decimal place. To keep full credit or gain partial credit, you must upload your work in the final question of the midterm.
A fly ball is hit to the outfield during a baseball game. Let’s neglect the effects of air resistance on the ball. The motion of the ball is animated in the simulation (linked below). The animation assumes that the ball’s initial location on the y axis is y0 = 1 m, and the ball's initial velocity has components v0x = 20 m/s and v0y = 20 m/s. Calculate the horizontal distance the baseball travels before landing on the ground at y = 0. (Write only the numerical value rounded to a whole number and exclude the unit)
Read and analyze the problem below then solve. Show a complete solution with illustration. 1. The range R of a projectile fired at an acute angle e with the horizontal and with an initial velocity of v meters per second is given by R=V²/g sin20 where g is the acceleration due to gravity, which is 9.81 m/sec² near the Earth's surface. An archer targets an object 100 meters away from her position. If she positions her arrow at an angle of 32° and releases the arrow at the speed of 30 m/sec. will she hit her target? (Show your calculations.)
Can you help me answer this? Solve separately by letter and explain how you get the answer. Thank you. About projectile motion.

A cannonball is shot with an initial speed of 66 m/s and 37.0º angle with respect to the ground. How long does it take for the ball to reach its the maximum height, in seconds? Use g = 10.0 m/s2. Your answer needs to have 2 significant figures, including the negative sign in your answer if needed. Do not include the positive sign if the answer is positive. No unit is needed in your answer, it is already given in the question statement.
A ball on a table rolls 50 cm to the tables edge, drops 30 cm to the ground, and then continues to roll for 75 cm until eventually coming to a stop. What is the magnitude and direction of the ball’s displacement, in cm (that is, how far is it from where it started)? Use a drawing with variables clearly labeled
An air cannon shoots an 8 lb pumpkin with an initial velocity of 68 m/s at an angle of 40° above the horizontal. Calculate in any order: How much time does the pumpkin spend in the air (the total time)? How far does it go (the range)? What is its maximum height? Explain, what key assumption(s) do you make, and how would your answers be different if they are not true?
A baseball player uses a very massive golden bat to hit a rubber ball off of a tee. If the bat is moving 20 m/s when it hits the ball, what will be the speed of the ball as it leaves the bat? (Hint: What change of ball velocity would a flea see while riding on the bat, thinking it to be stationary?) Give your answer in m/s but do not write the units.
