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.)
An airplane flying horizontally with a speed of 500 km/h at a height of 800 m drops a crate of supplies (see the following figure). If the parachute fails to open, how far in front of the release point does the crate hit the ground?
In the blizzard of ’88, a rancher was forced to drop hay bales from an airplane to feed her cattle. The plane flew horizontally at 160 km/hr and dropped the bales from a height of 80 m above the flat range, (a) She wanted the bales of hay to land 30 m behind the cattle so as to not hit them. Where should she push the bales out of the airplane? (b) To not hit the cattle, what is the largest time error she could make while pushing the bales out of the airplane? Ignore air resistance.
An arrow is shot from a height of 1.8 m toward a cliff of height H. It is shot with a velocity of 26 m/s at an angle of 60º above the horizontal. It lands on the top edge of the cliff 5.24 s later. What is the height of the cliff?
A ballplayer standing at home plate hits a baseball that is caught by another player at the same height above the ground from which it was hit. The ball is hit with an initial velocity of 32.7 m/s at an angle of 60.0° above the horizontal. a. How high will the ball rise than where it was hit? asnwer in m b. How much time (in seconds) will elapse from the time the ball leaves the bat until it reaches the fielder? answer in s c. At what distance from the home plate will the fielder be when he catches the ball? answer in m
A catapult on a cliff launches a large round rock towards a ship on the ocean below. The rock leaves the catapult from a height H of 31.0 m above sea level, directed at an angle θ above the horizontal with an unknown speed v0. What is the vertical component of the rock's velocity at its maximum height?
4. A person is standing 15.5 m from a target, which is at a height of 3.10 m. The person wishes to throw a ballso that it strikes the target. A ball is thrown with an initial velocity directed 40.0° above the horizontal. The ballis released from a point that is 1.90 m above the ground. What initial velocity is required in order for the ball tostrike the target?
During a summer vacation, a group of professional football players were having a contest to see who could jump the farthest off a dock into the lake. One player’s horizontal distance at splashdown was 3.65 m from the edge of the dock. If the surface of the dock sits 1.20 m above the water surface and the player left the dock with a 0.0o launch angle, what was the player’s speed when he left the dock?
A basketball player is running at 5.00 m/s directlytoward the basket when he jumps into the air to dunk the ball.He maintains his horizontal velocity. (a) What vertical velocitydoes he need to rise 0.750 m above the floor? (b) How farfrom the basket (measured in the horizontal direction) musthe start his jump to reach his maximum height at the sametime as he reaches the basket?
A 0.30 kg football is thrown from a height of 2.5 m with an initial velocity of 25.0 m/s (34° above the horizontal axis). Assuming that there is no air resistance and that the ball lands on the ground, how far will the ball travel horizontally?
After discovering that two hikers have been stranded on Devil’s Thumb Pass, the Colorado Search andRescue team sends out a plane with supplies for the hikers. Because the hikers are in an isolated location, theplane has to drop the supplies as it fies overhead (see Figure 1). If the plane is 235 m above the hikers andhas a horizontal speed of 200 km/h, how far away from the hikers should the supplies be dropped if they areto land at the hikers’ location?
A locust jumps at an angle of 55.0 degrees and lands 0.820 m from where it jumped. What is the maximum height of the locust during it’s jump? Ignore air resistance. If it jumps with the same initial speed at an angle of 45.0 degrees, what is the maximum height? If it jumps with the same initial speed at an angle of 45.0 degrees, what would the range be?
