A man hits a ball 2.4 m above the ground. If the ball leaves his racket with an initial velocity of 52 m/s in a horizontal direction, what is the magnitude of the range (in meters) that the ball covers? Assume the local acceleration due to gravity to have the magnitude 9.8 m/s2.
A group of students celebrate their first year of medical school with a hot-air balloon ride, which is rising upward with a constant speed of 3.0 m/s. When the balloon is 3.50 m above the ground, one of the students who is taking a selfie with the other students accidentally drops her smart phone over the side of the balloon (fortunately with a OtterBox case). With what speed would the phone hit the ground in m/s? Note that the displacement of the phone dropping 3.50 m would be - 3.50 m. For the same situation as Question 9, how long in seconds would the smart phone be in the air before it hits the ground?
