A fireman d = 50.0 m away from a burning building directs a stream of water from a ground-level fire hose at an angle of i = 30.0 above the horizontal as shown in Figure P3.18. If the speed of the stream as it leaves the hose is vi = 40.0 m/s, at what height will the stream of water strike the building? Figure P3.18
A firefighter, a distance d from a burning building, directs a stream of water from a fire hose at angle i above the horizontal as shown in Figure P3.16. If the initial speed of the stream is vi, at what height h does the water strike the building? Figure P3.16
A student stands at the edge of a cliff and throws a stone horizontally over the edge with a speed of vi= 18.0 m/s. The cliff is h = 50.0 m above a body of water as shown in Figure P3.19. (a) What are the coordinates of the initial position of the stone? (b) What are the components of the initial velocity of the stone? (c) What is the appropriate analysis model for the vertical motion of the stone? (d) What is the appropriate analysis model for the horizontal motion of the stone? (e) Write symbolic equations for the x and y components of the velocity of the stone as a function of time. (f) Write symbolic equations for the position of the stone as a function of time. (g) How long after being released does the stone strike the water below the cliff? (h) With what speed and angle of impact does the stone land?
A basketball player is standing on the floor 10.0 m from the basket as in Figure P4.60. The height of the basket is 3.05 m, and he shoots the ball at a 40.0 angle with the horizontal from a height of 2.00 m. (a) What is the acceleration of the basketball at the highest point in its trajectory? (b) At what speed must the player throw the basketball so that the ball goes through the hoop without striking the backboard?
An Olympic diver is on a diving platform 4.5 m above the water. To start her dive, she runs off of the platform with a speed of 1.3 m/s in the horizontal direction. Determine the diver's speed just before she enters the water. 4.7 m/s 9.5 m/s 6.4 m/s 0 m/s
An Olympic diver is on a diving platform 4.5 m above the water. To start her dive, she runs off of the platform with a speed of 1.3 m/s in the horizontal direction. You will be asked to find the diver's speed just before she enters the water. What are the givens in the y-direction? v0y = 1.3 m/s; ay = -9.8 m/s2; Δy = 4.5 m v0y = 0 m/s; ay = -9.8 m/s2; Δy = 4.5 m v0y = 1.3 m/s; ay = 0 m/s2; Δy = -4.5 m v0y = 0 m/s; ay = -9.8 m/s2; Δy = -4.5 m
A 2.00-m-tall basketball player is standing on the floor 10.0 m from the basket, as in Figure P3. 58. If he shoots the ball at a 40.0° angle with the horizontal, at what initial speed must he throw the basketball so that it goes through the hoop without striking the backboard? The height of the basket is 3.05 m.
An Olympic diver is on a diving platform 4.5 m above the water. To start her dive, she runs off of the platform with a speed of 1.3 m/s in the horizontal direction. You will be asked to find the diver's speed just before she enters the water. What are the x- and y components of her velocity just before she enters the water? Note: these may require calculations.vfx = 1.3 m/s; vfy = -4.5 m/svfx = 1.3 m/s; vfy = -9.4 m/svfx = 0 m/s; vfy = 0 m/svfx = 4.5 m/s; vfy = -4.5 m/s
Brenda is flying a small airplane. Her velocity, with respect to the air around her is 45.0 m/s south. The air is also moving with a velocity of 9.9 m/s east. To an observer on the ground, what is the magnitude of Brenda’s velocity? 35.1 m/s 46.1 m/s 27.5 m/s 54.9 m/s
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 3.6 ss for the dart to land back at the barrel.
A flock of ducks is trying to migrate south for the winter, but they keep being blown off course by a wind blowing from the west at 12 m/s. A wise elder duck finally realizes that the solution is to fly at an angle to the wind. If the ducks can fly at 16 m/s relative to the air, in what direction should they head in order to move directly south?
A rugby player runs with the ball directly toward his opponent’s goal, along the positive direction of an x axis. He can legally pass the ball to a teammate as long as the ball’s velocity relative to the field does not have a positive x component. Suppose the player runs at speed 4.0 m/s relative to the field while he passes the ball with velocity relative to himself. If has magnitude 6.0 m/s, what is the smallest angle it can have for the pass to be legal?
