Aaron Rodgers throws a football at 20.0 m/s to his wide receiver, who runs straight down the field at 9.4 m/s for 20.0 m. If Aaron throws the football when the wide receiver has reached 10.0 m, what angle does Aaron have to launch the ball so the receiver catches it at the 20.0 m mark?
In the control tower at a regional airport, an air traffic controller monitors two aircraft as their positions change with respect to the control tower. One plane is a cargo carrier Boeing 747 and the other plane is a Douglas DC-3. The Boeing is at an altitude of 2500 m, climbing at 100 above the horizontal, and moving 30 north of west. The DC-3 is at an altitude of 3000 m, climbing at 50 above the horizontal, and cruising directly west. (a) Find the position vectors of the planes relative to the control tower. (b) What is the distance between the planes at the moment the air traffic controller makes a note about their positions?
As shown in Figure 1 of the ski ramp, you need to make sure that theskier lands safe once they jump from the ski ramp. Given that ramp A has an angle(theta)A = 25° with the horizontal. Calculate the time taken, t for the skier to jump from point A to point B.
A swimmer heads 30◦ west of north relative to the water of a 200-m wide river as shown in the figure. Due to theeastward current of the water, when she reaches the opposite bank she finds herself 480 m east of her startingpoint. What is the speed of the river’s current if she can swim with a speed of vS/W = 0.50 m/s in still water?
A boy and a girl of same height stand on an incline of 30degreessto the horizontal. If the girl throws the ball with an initial velocity of 15 m/sec at an angle of 50degreesto the horizontal to the boy standing uphill, determine the time of flight of the ball and the position of the boy on the incline to catch the ball. Also, determine the maximum range and the angle of projection required for maximum range.

A physicist runs straight south at a velocity of 8mi/hr. The wind is at her back (directly from the north, relative to Earth) at a velocity of 20 mi/hr. She decides to change her course so that the wind will strike her right side (i.e. at 90-degrees relative to her motion). By what angle must she change her direction of course? Please show a diagram as well.
