During a recent winter storm, bales of hay had to be dropped from an airplane to a herd of cattle below. Assume the airplane flew horizontally at an altitude of 222 m. with a constant velocity of 44.0m/s and dropped one bale of hay every 3.0 seconds. It is reasonable to assume that air resistance will be negligible for this situation. About how far apart from each other will the bales land on the ground? Answer in m (rounded to the nearest whole number)

A locust jumps at an angle of 55.0 degrees and lands 0.820 m from where it jumped. What is the maximum height of the locust during it’s jump? Ignore air resistance. If it jumps with the same initial speed at an angle of 45.0 degrees, what is the maximum height? If it jumps with the same initial speed at an angle of 45.0 degrees, what would the range be?
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?
A projectile fired is fired with an initial speed of 36.6 m/s at an angle of 42.2o 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 total horizontal distance covered (that is, the range), and (d) the speed of the projectile 1.50 s after firing
A baseball, hit 6 feet above the ground, leaves the bat at an angle of 43° and is caught by an outfielder 2 feet above the ground and 122 feet from home plate. Neglecting air resistance, what was the initial speed of the ball?
A bird is sitting on the top of a tree 10 m high. With what velocity should a person, standing at a distance of 25 m from the tree, throws a stone at an angle of 30° with the horizontal so as to hit the bird ?
A plane flying horizontally at a speed of 50 m/s and at an elevation of 160 m drops a package, and 2.0 s later it drops a second package. How far apart will the two packages land on the ground if air resistance is negligible?
A lifeguard stands on top of a watch tower at the beach and purposely throws a stone horizontally with a speed of vi=18.0 m/s. The height of the tower is 50.0 m above the ground. With what speed does the stone land? How long after being released does the stone strike ground? With what angle of impact does the stone land?

An archer fish spies a meal of a grasshopper sitting on a long stalk of grass at the edge of the pond in which he is swimming. The fish is to successfully spit at and strike the grasshopper, which is 0.200 m away horizontally and 0.335 m above his mouth. What is the minimum speed at which the archer fish must spit?
A catapult is placed 100 feet from the castle wall, which is 35 feet high. The soldier wants the burning bale of hay to clear the top of the wall and land 50 feet inside a castle wall. If the initial velocity of the bale is 70 feet per second, then at what angle should the bale of hay be launched so that it travels 150 feet and pass over the castle wall. Use g=32ft/s^2.
Imagine a firework has a fuse designed so that it explodes at the highest point of its trajectory, and it's launched with an initial speed of 60 m/s at an angle of 70 degrees to the horizontal. What height h it explodes at? (Answer in cm and round-off to the whole number.)
According to the Guinness Book of World Records, the longest home run ever measured was hit by Roy "Dizzy" Carlyle in a minor-league game. The ball traveled 188 m (618 ft ) before landing on the ground outside the ballpark. Assuming that the ball's initial velocity was 45∘ above the horizontal, and ignoring air resistance, what did the initial speed of the ball need to be to produce such a home run if the ball was hit at a point 1.0 m (3.3 ft ) above ground level? Assume that the ground was perfectly flat.
