Alan Shepard struck a golf ball while on the moon. Assuming an initial velocity of 70 m/s with a launch angle of 30° up from the horizontal surface, how high could the golf ball go? (Assume gmoon = 1.6 m/s2. FYI: sin 30° = 0.5)

in Denver, children bring their old jack-o-lanterns to the top of a tower and compete for accuracy in hitting a target on the ground. Suppose that the tower is 9.0 mm high and that the bull's-eye is a horizontal distance of 3.5 mm from the launch point. If the pumpkin is thrown horizontally, what is the launch speed needed to hit the bull's-eye?
You launch a ball from a height of 10.0 m so that the horizontal component of its launch (initial) velocity is 2.183 m/s. If it lands on the ground (yf = 0.00 m) a distance of 4.831 m away, what was the original launch velocity (magnitude and angle above the horizontal)?
A projectile is launched at an angle of 25 degrees from the horizontal. It strikes the ground at 360 meter away from the point where it was launched. For what other angle of launched at the same speed would the projectile land at the same range? Why?
