A marble is launched from the edge of a table at a angle of 45 ° up from horizontal and goes through the air until it hits the floor. True or False? For such a marble, |vx| (the magnitude of the x-component of the velocity) is decreasing the entire time the marble is airborne.
A regulation volleyball court measures L = 18.0 meters in length and d = 2.43 meters in height. A volleyball player hits the ball from a height of h = 1.50 m just over the backline, and the initial velocity of the ball creates an angle of q = 30° with the ground. At what initial speed must the ball be struck such that it barely clears the net?
A projectile is launched from ground level to the top of a cliff which is 195 m away and 155 m high. If the projectile lands on top of the cliff 7.6 s later it is fired, find the magnitude and direction of the initial velocity of the projectile.
a projectile is fired with an initial speed of 36.6 m/s at an angle of 42.2° above the horizontal on a long flat firing range.Determine (a) the maximum height reached by the projectile, (b) the total time in the air, (c) the range, and the (d) the speed of the projectile 1.50 s after firing
A ball is thrown into the air at 60° angle to the ground, takes a parabolic path, and is in the air for a total time of 4 s. If the upward direction from the ground is positive, what is the best estimate of the ball’s velocity at a time 3 s after it leaves the ground?
Miltiadis Tentoglou is the current Olympic gold medalist for the running long jump. In one of Miltiadis’ practices, he insanely attempts to jump five people who are laid out on the ground in single file from head to toe. Each of the five individuals are 1.7 meters in height and when Miltiadis launches off the ground his initial resultant velocity is directed 20 degrees above the horizon and the horizontal component of this resultant velocity is 10 m/s. In executing the jump, Miltiadis’ center of mass drops 0.6 meters vertically from the instant of takeoff to the instant of landing. Calculate Miltiadis’ a) initial and final vertical velocities in m/s, b) initial and final resultant velocity magnitudes in m/s, c) total time in the air in seconds and d) how far he was able to jump horizontally in meters. e) How many centimeters of clearance did Miltiadis have on both sides of the jump when jumping the five individuals (assume the clearance distance is the same on both sides of the…
A punter kicks a football at an angle of 30 degrees with the horizontal at an initial speed of 15 m/s. Where should a punt returner position himself to catch the ball just before it strikes the ground?
A ball is tossed horizontally from the highest point of a 75 m building and lands 150 m from the base of the building. Ignore air resistance, and use a coordinate system whose origin is at the highest point of the building, with positive y upwards and positive x in the direction of the throw. How long is the ball in the air for, in seconds?

A young girl standing on a bridge throws a stone with an initial velocity of 12 m/s at a downward angle of 45° to the horizontal, in an attempt to hit a block of wood floating in the river below. If the stone is thrown from a height of 20 m and it just reaches the water when the block is 13 m from the bridge, does the stone hit the block?
