(a)lf the player hits the ball from a height of 3.5m with an initial velocity of vo = (15.1i +2.2j) m/s does the ball make it over the 1 m-high %3D net? (b) If the player hits the ball horizontally from a height of 3.5 m, what is the minimum speed required so that the ball clears the net (i.e. can make it over a height of exactly 1 m)? (c) What is the velocity in unit vector notation that the ball hits the ground given the minimum speed you calculated in part (b)? 3.5 m 1 m 15 m

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 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?

A regulation volleyball court measures L = 18.0 meters in length and d = 2.43 meters in height. A volleyball player hits the ball from a height of h = 1.50 m just over the backline, and the initial velocity of the ball creates an angle of q = 30° with the ground. At what initial speed must the ball be struck such that it barely clears the net?
