An airplane releases a ball as it flies parallel to the ground at a height of ℎ=145 m as shown in the figure. If the ball lands on the ground a horizontal distance equal to the height ℎ from the release point, calculate the speed ? of the plane. Neglect any effects due to air resistance, and use ?=9.81 m/s2 for the acceleration due to gravity.
A rocket was launched at a 35-degree angle above the horizontal at an initial velocity of +55 m/s. What is the Vy and Vx of this rocket?
A ball is shot from the top of a building with an initial velocity of 18 m/s at an angle θ = 43° above the horizontal. If a nearby building is the same height and 61 m away, how far below the top of the building will the ball strike the nearby building? ( Choose upward as the positive y-direction and express the displacement with the sign of the result, which must be in units of meters and include 1 digit after the decimal point. Maximum of 5% of error is accepted in your answer. Take g=9.80 m/s2.)
