If a projectile is fired from the origin of the coordinate system with an initial velocity υ0 and in a direction making an angle α with the horizontal, calculate the time required for the projectile to cross a line passing through the origin and making an angle β < α with the horizontal.
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. What must have been the initial horizontal component of the velocity, in meters per second?
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 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?
Neglecting the size of the ball, determine the magnitude Va of the basketball's initial velocity and its velocity when it passes through the basket, including its magnitude and direction.
Question 2: #63 In 1780, in what is now referred to as "Brady's Leap," Captain Sam Brady of the U.S. Continental Army escaped certain death from his enemies by running horizontally off the edge of the cliff above Ohio's Cuyahoga River, which is con-fined at that spot to a gorge. He landed safely on the far side of the river. It was reported that he leapt 22 ft across while falling 20 ft. Tall tale, or possible?
The longest recorded pass in an NFL game traveled 83 yards in the air from the quarterback to the receiver. Assuming that the pass was thrown at the optimal 45° angle, what was the speed at which the ball left the quarterback’s hand?
The record distance in the sport of throwing cowpats is 81.1 m. This record toss was set by Steve Urner of the United States in 1981. Assuming the initial launch angle was 45° and neglecting air resistance, determine the following: (a) the initial speed of the projectile and (b) the total time the projectile was in flight.
According to the Guinness Book of World Records, the loingest home run ever measured was hit by Roy "Dizzy" Carlyle in a minor league game, with the ball traveling 188 m (i.e. 618ft) befor landing on the ground outside of the ballpark. Assuming the ball's initial velocity was 45.0 degress abbout the horizontal (ignoring air resistace), what did the initital speeed of the ball need to be to produce such a home run given that the ball was hit at a point 0.900 m (i.e. 3.00ft) about ground level. Assume the ground is flat and explain how the assuumption that the ground is flat is required to complete this calculation.
Eddie Manalak is a Filipino stuntman, he wishes to cross the 520m distance between two tall buildings by being shot from a cannon. He wishes to be launched at 60° to the horizontal so that he can spend more time in waving to the crowd. With what speed must he be launched? ANS. 76.7 m/s
The range of a projectile depends not only on v0 and but also on the value g of the free-fall acceleration, which varies from place to place. In 1936, Jesse Owens established a world’s running broad jump record of 8.09 m at the Olympic Games at Berlin (where g 9.8128 m/s2). Assuming the same values of v0 and , by how much would his record have differed if he had competed instead in 1956 at Melbourne (where g = 9.7999 m/s2)?
By analyzing a multiflash photograph of a golfer hitting a golf ball, one finds that the head of the club travels 49.5 cm in 0.0096 s, just before it strikes the ball. Find the approximate instantaneous speed of the club head at the instant of contact.
