In Dover, Delaware, a post-Halloween traditionis “Punkin Chunkin,” in which contestants build cannons, catapults, trebuchets, and other devices to launch pumpkins and compete for the greatest distance. Though hard to believe, pumpkinshave been projected a distance of 4694 feet in this contest. What isthe minimum initial speed needed for such a shot?
When a ball with a mass of 3 kg reaches 9 meters above the ground after being thrown obliquely from the ground to the air, the velocity vector is calculated with v = 7i + 6j. Accordingly, what is the maximum height the ball can reach?
On level land, a youngster aspires to toss a ball over a flat-roofed schoolhouse measuring 12 meters wide and 7.5 meters high. Determine how far away from the wall he should stand to make the ball clear the roof with the least amount of effort, that is, with the lowest starting velocity, assuming the ball will leave his hand at a height of 1.5 m above the ground.
When Babe Ruth hit a homer over the 8.0-m-high rightfield fence 98 m from home plate, roughly what was the minimum speed of the ball when it left the bat? Assume the ball was hit 1.0 m above the ground and its path initiallymade a 36° angle with the ground.
When Babe Ruth hit a homer over the 7.9 m -high right-field fence 94 m from home plate, roughly what was the minimum speed of the ball when it left the bat? Assume the ball was hit 1.2 m above the ground and its path initially made a 35 ∘ angle with the ground.
According to the Guinness Book of World Records, the longest home run ever measured was hit by Roy "Dizzy" Carlyle in a minor-league game. The ball traveled 188 m (618 ft ) before landing on the ground outside the ballpark. Assuming that the ball's initial velocity was 45∘ above the horizontal, and ignoring air resistance, what did the initial speed of the ball need to be to produce such a home run if the ball was hit at a point 1.0 m (3.3 ft ) above ground level? Assume that the ground was perfectly flat.
An electronic is projected as shown in the figure with an initial speed of Vo = 5.83x106 m / s and at an angle of θ = 39.0, E = 1870 N / C (directed upwards), d = 1.97 cm and L = 6.20 cm. A) Does the upper or lower plate hit? Hint: determine the maximum height it reaches, if it is> d, it hits the upper one, if it is <d, it hits the lower one b) At what horizontal distance from the launch point does it hit the plate?
A physics student, standing 7 m from a tree, throws a roll of toilet paper up into the limbs of the tree at an angle of 65° above the horizontal. If the student throws the roll with a velocity of 12 m/s, at what height will the roll hit the tree?
A student stands at the edge of a cliff and throws a stone horizontally over the edge with a speed of vo=18.5 m/s. the cliff is h=49.0 m above a flat, horizontal beach. what are the coordinates of the initial position of the stone and the components of the initial velocity?
A rock is thrown from the top of a building 94 m high, with a speed of 14 m/s at an angle 33 degrees above the horizontal. When it hits the ground, what is the magnitude of its velocity (i.e. its speed).
Eddie Manalak is a Filipino stuntman, he wishes to cross the 520m distance between two tall buildings by being shot from a cannon. He wishes to be launched at 60° to the horizontal so that he can spend more time in waving to the crowd. With what speed must he be launched? ANS. 76.7 m/s
Sasha stands on the ground and tosses a baseball perfectly vertically up to her friend Helge, who catches it by reaching outside the window of his apartment building. She gives the ball an initial speed of vi= 19.7 m/s, and Helge catches it 1.40 s later when it reaches his hands. If Helge were to drop the baseball from rest at this point, what would be its final speed vf when it reaches Sasha’s hands down below? (She catches the ball at the same height from which she tossed it.)For your limit check, investigate what happens to vf as Sasha’s launch speed gets very large (i.e., as vi→∞). This is my question. I am also trying to figure out what formulas I would use to solve it.
