In a football game, a player wants to kick the ball as far as possible, but also make sure that it stays in the air as long as possible, so that there is enough time for other players to run down the field and tackle the receiver. If the football is supposed to travel a distance of 49.8 m and stay in the air for 4.41 s, what initial angle and speed does the player have to provide? You can assume that the initial and final vertical coordinate are zero. Hint: Start from the range equation that you derived in class.
A marble is launched from the edge of a table at a angle of 45 ° up from horizontal and goes through the air until it hits the floor. True or False? For such a marble, |vx| (the magnitude of the x-component of the velocity) is decreasing the entire time the marble is airborne.
A particle initially located at the origin has an acceleration of a=3.00jm/s2 and an initial velocity of vi=5.00im/s. Find (a) the vector position of the particle at any time t, (b) the velocity of the particle at any time t, (c) the coordinates of the particle at t = 2.00 s, and (d) the speed of the particle at t = 2.00 s.
A punter kicks a football at an angle of 30 degrees with the horizontal at an initial speed of 15 m/s. Where should a punt returner position himself to catch the ball just before it strikes the ground?
Miltiadis Tentoglou is the current Olympic gold medalist for the running long jump. In one of Miltiadis’ practices, he insanely attempts to jump five people who are laid out on the ground in single file from head to toe. Each of the five individuals are 1.7 meters in height and when Miltiadis launches off the ground his initial resultant velocity is directed 20 degrees above the horizon and the horizontal component of this resultant velocity is 10 m/s. In executing the jump, Miltiadis’ center of mass drops 0.6 meters vertically from the instant of takeoff to the instant of landing. Calculate Miltiadis’ a) initial and final vertical velocities in m/s, b) initial and final resultant velocity magnitudes in m/s, c) total time in the air in seconds and d) how far he was able to jump horizontally in meters. e) How many centimeters of clearance did Miltiadis have on both sides of the jump when jumping the five individuals (assume the clearance distance is the same on both sides of the…
A rocket is fired at a speed of 83.0m/s from ground level, at an angle of 66.0degrees above the horizontal. The rocket is fired towards an 28.8m high wall, which is located 25.0m away. The rocket attains its launch speed in a neglibly short period of time, after which its engines shut down and the rocket coasts. By how much time does the rocket clear the top of the wall?
You buy a plastic dart gun, and being a clever physics student you decide to do a quick calculation to find its maximum horizontal range. You shoot the gun straight up, and it takes 3.6 ss for the dart to land back at the barrel.

In the figure, particle A moves along the line y = 31 m with a constant velocity of magnitude 2.7 m/s and parallel to the x axis. At the instant particle A passes the y axis, particle B leaves the origin with zero initial speed and constant acceleration of magnitude 0.48 m/s2. What angle ? between and the positive direction of the y axis would result in a collision?
For women’s volleyball the top of the net is 2.24 m above the floor and the court measures 9.0 m by 9.0 m on each side of the net. Using a jump serve, a player strikes the ball at a point that is 3.0 m above the floor and a horizontal distance of 8.0 m from the net. If the initial velocity of the ball is horizontal, (a) what minimum magnitude must it have if the ball is to clear the net and (b) what maximum magnitude can it have if the ball is to strike the floor inside the back line on the other side of the net?
Dylan and Sophia are walking along Bluebird Lake on a perfectly calm day. Dylan, determined to impress Sophia by his ability to skip rocks, picks up the flattest rock he can find and gives it a sidearm launch from the edge of the water. The rock acquires a completely horizontal speed of 27.2 m/s from a height of 0.54 meters above the water surface. How much time does it take to hit the surface of the water?
