In an amusement park water slide, people slide down an essentially frictionless tube. The top of the slide is 3.2 m above the bottom where they exit the slide, moving horizontally, 1.2 m above a swimming pool. What horizontal distance do they travel from the exit point before hitting the water?

A regulation volleyball court measures L = 18.0 meters in length and d = 2.43 meters in height. A volleyball player hits the ball from a height of h = 1.50 m just over the backline, and the initial velocity of the ball creates an angle of q = 30° with the ground. At what initial speed must the ball be struck such that it barely clears the net?
A Chinook (King) salmon (Genus Oncorynchus) can jump out of water with a speed of 5.55 m/s. (See Problem 4.9, page 111 for an investigation of how the fish can leave the water at a higher speed that it can swim underwater.) If the salmon is in a stream with water speed equal to 1.65 m/s, how high in the air can the fish jump if it leaves the water traveling vertically upwards relative to the Earth?
A skater is gliding along the ice at 2.2 m/s, when she undergoes an acceleration of magnitude 1.2 m/s2 for 3.0 s. At the end of that time she is moving at 5.8 m/s. (a) What must be the angle between the acceleration vector and the initial velocity vector?
A fish swimming in a horizontal plane has velocity i = (4.00 î + 1.00 ĵ) m/s at a point in the ocean where the position relative to a certain rock is i = (16.0 î − 3.20 ĵ) m. After the fish swims with constant acceleration for 15.0 s, its velocity is = (21.0 î − 6.00 ĵ) m/s. In what direction is it moving? ______________? ° counterclockwise from the +x-axis
