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.
A young girl standing on a bridge throws a stone with an initial velocity of 12 m/s at a downward angle of 45° to the horizontal, in an attempt to hit a block of wood floating in the river below. If the stone is thrown from a height of 20 m and it just reaches the water when the block is 13 m from the bridge, does the stone hit the block?

A sandbag is dropped from a balloon which is ascending vertically at a constant speed of 6 m/s. If the bag is released with the same upward velocity of 6 m/s when t = 0 s and hits the ground when t = 8 s, determine the speed of the bag as it hits the ground and the altitude of the balloon at this instant.
Dominador, who is standing on the edge of an 80-m tall cliff facing the sea, kicks a ball horizontally at a speed of 13.01 m/s. How far from the base of the cliff will the ball hit the sea water? Let be the initial vertical position of the ball, with positive position in the upward direction. The vertical displacement of the ball from the edge of the cliff to the seawater is: meters. The time it takes for the ball to reach the seawater is: t = seconds. The horizontal distance traveled by the ball is: meters.
A rugby player passes the ball 9.75 m across the field, where it is caught at the same height as it left his hand. At what angle was the ball thrown if its initial speed was 12.0 m/s, assuming that the smaller of the two possible angles was used? (Answer in Degrees) What other angle gives the same range? (Answer in Degrees) For the pass using the smaller of the two angles, how long is the ball in the air? (answer in Seconds)
