A helicopter flying horizontally at an altitude of 3 km is on course to pass directly over a cell tower.At the instant when the helicopter is 5 km from the tower, the distance between them is decreasingat the rate of 160 km/h. What is the helicopter’s speed at that time?
One of the fastest recorded pitches in major-league baseball, thrown by Billy Wagner in 2003, was clocked at 101.0 mi/h (45.1 m/s). If a pitch were thrown horizontally with this velocity, how far would the ball fall vertically, in meters, by the time it reached home plate, 60.5 ft. (18.4 m) away? *Must include BIG six list for both x and y directions*
an albatrossglides at a constant 15 m/s horizontallyabove level ground, moving ina vertical plane that contains theSun. It glides toward a wall of heighth = 2.0 m, which it will just barelyclear. At that time of day, the angleof the Sun relative to the ground isu = 30. At what speed does theshadow of the albatross move (a) across the level ground andthen (b) up the wall? Suppose that later a hawk happens to glidealong the same path, also at 15 m/s.You see that when its shadowreaches the wall, the speed of the shadow noticeably increases.(c) Is the Sun now higher or lower in the sky than when the albatrossflew by earlier? (d) If the speed of the hawk’s shadow onthe wall is 45 m/s, what is the angle u of the Sun just then?

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?

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?
