In a basketball game, the point guard A intends to throw a pass to the shooting guard B, who is breaking toward the basket at a constant speed of 13 ft/sec. If the shooting guard is to catch the ball at a height of 7.3 ft at C while in full stride to execute a layup, determine the speed vo and launch angle with which the point guard should throw the ball. A Answers: Vo = VO 0 = 0 M 5.8' 48' 13 ft/sec B ft/sec 19' C 7.3'

A firefighter, a distance d from a burning building, directs a stream of water from a fire hose at angle i above the horizontal as shown in Figure P3.16. If the initial speed of the stream is vi, at what height h does the water strike the building? Figure P3.16
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?
If you are standing on the free-throw line on a basketball court, the basket is about 4.5 m horizontally from you and it is located around 3m above the floor. What initial velocity vector is required to successfully throw the ball into the basket?
A projectile is launched from ground level at an angle θ to the top of a cliff which is 195 m away and 155 m high. If the projectile lands right on the cliff edge 7.6 s after it is fired, find the initial velocity of the projectile.
When a projectile is fired with a velocity of 815 m/s at an angle of 37º above the horizontal, the maximum height reached by the projectile is what?
A football player punts the football so that it will have a “hang time” (time of flight) of 4.5 s and land 46 m away. If the ball leaves the player’s foot 150 cm above the ground, what must be the (a) magnitude and (b) angle (relative to the horizontal) of the ball’s initial velocity?
Consider a projectile being launched with an initial speed of 58 m/s at a variety of initial angles. What is the range, in meters, of the projectile if it is launched at an angle of θ1 = 78.3°?
Our pinoy pride, Kai Sotto, is now training for his upcoming 3x3 basketball tournament next year. Under International Basketball Federation (FIBA) rules, the three-point line is 6.75 meters from the center of the basket. If he will train for three-point shooting, what should be the ball's angle when he shoots the ball if he will try to shoot from a height as high as the basket with an initial velocity of 8.2 m/s? Is it 40°; 50°; 60°? How long would it take for the ball to reach the ring for each of the angles? What is the ball's maximum height for each of the angles? And how fast is the ball's horizontal and vertical initial velocities for each or the angles?
A golfer tees off on a hill located 75 meters below the green. If the golfer wants a hole in one and the hole is 285 meters away, will they succeed? If not, how far away will the ball land from the hole? Use 60 m/s at 60 degrees for the initial golf ball velocity.
In a football game, a player wants to kick the ball as far as possible, but also make sure that it stays in the air as long as possible, so that there is enough time for other players to run down the field and tackle the receiver. If the football is supposed to travel a distance of 49.8 m and stay in the air for 4.41 s, what initial angle and speed does the player have to provide? You can assume that the initial and final vertical coordinate are zero. Hint: Start from the range equation that you derived in class.
A bullet is fired from the ground with an initial velocity of 50 m/s that makes with the horizontal an angle of 30°. The y-component of the velocity (v,) of this object after 1 second is?
A projectile is shot from the edge of a cliff 125 m above ground level with an initial speed of 105 m/s at an angle of 37º with the horizontal. (a) Determine the time taken by the projectile to hit the ground. (b) Determine the range of the projectile as measured from the base of the cliff. At the instant just before the projectile hits the ground, find (c) the horizontal and vertical components of its velocity, (d) the magnitude of the velocity, and (e) the angle made by the velocity vector with the horizontal.
