A rescue plane drops a package of emergency rations to a stranded troops in an isolated island as explorers, as shown in figure 4.15. If the plane is traveling horizontally at 40.0 m/s and is 100 m above the ground, where does the package strike the ground relative to the point at which it was released? What are the horizontal and vertical components of the velocity of the package just before it hits the ground?
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 pitcher throws a fastball horizontally toward home plate 18.39 meters away. If the ball is traveling at a constant speed of 40.0m/s, neglecting air friction, how long does it take for the ball to get to home plate? What are the givens in the problem? What are the unknowns? What equation should you use to find the unknown? What is the correct answer?
18. A horizontal rifl e is fi red at a bull’s-eye. The muzzle speed of the bulletis 670 m/s. The gun is pointed directly at the center of the bull’s-eye, but the bullet strikes the target 0.025 m below the center. What is the horizontaldistance between the end of the rifl e and the bull’s-eye?
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 4.5 s for the dart to land back at the barrel. What is the maximum horizontal range of your gun?
