You can use any coordinate system you like to solve a projectile motion problem. To demonstrate the truth of this statement, consider a ball thrown off the top of a building with a velocity v at an angle with respect to the horizontal. Let the building be 50.0 m tall, the initial horizontal velocity be 9.00 m/s, and the initial vertical velocity be 12.0 m/s. Choose your coordinates such that the positive y-axis is upward, the x-axis is to the right, and the origin is at the point where the ball is released, (a) With these choices, find the balls maximum height above the ground and the time it takes to reach the maximum height. (b) Repeat your calculations choosing the origin at the base of the building.

(Figure 1)A cannonball is fired horizontally from the top of a cliff. The cannon is at height H = 50.0 m above ground level, and the ball is fired with initial horizontal speed v0. Assume acceleration due to gravity to be g= 9.80 m/s2. Given that the projectile lands at a distance D = 120 m from the cliff, as shown in the figure, find the initial speed of the projectile, v0.

A player kicks a football at an angle of 37 degrees with the horizontal and with an initial speed of 16 m/s. A second player standing at a distance of 33m from the first in the direction of the kick starts running to meet the ball at the instant it is kicked, Assuming the player is already running at constant speed, how fast must he run in order to catch the ball before it hits the ground?
In the Superbowl, a quarterback throws a football while standing at the very center of the field on the 50 yard line. The ball leaves his hand at a height of 5 ft and has initial velocity of ~v(0) =< 40, 35, 32 > ft/sec. Assume an acceleration of 32 ft/sec2 due to gravity, i.e., ~a(t) =< 0, 0, −32 >, and that the vector ~i points down fieldtoward the endzone and that the vector ~j points to the sideline. The field is 150 ft in width and 300 ft in length.(a) Determine the position function that gives the position of the ball t seconds after it isthrown. (b) The ball is caught by a player 5 ft above the ground. Is the player in bounds or out ofbounds when he receives the ball? (Assume the player is standing vertically with bothtoes on the ground at the time of reception.)
