In the annual battle of the dorms, students gather on the roofs of Jackson and Walton dorms to launch water balloons at each other with slingshots. The horizontal distance between the buildings is 37.0 m, and the heights of the Jackson and Walton buildings are, respectively, 13.0 m and 21.0 m. The first balloon launched by the Jackson team hits Walton dorm 1.80 s after launch, striking it halfway between the ground and the roof. Ignore air resistance. (a) Find the direction of the balloon's initial velocity. Give your answer as an angle (in degrees) measured above the horizontal.

A player kicks a football at an angle of 37 degrees with the horizontal and with an initial speed of 16 m/s. A second player standing at a distance of 33m from the first in the direction of the kick starts running to meet the ball at the instant it is kicked, Assuming the player is already running at constant speed, how fast must he run in order to catch the ball before it hits the ground?
Mayan kings and many school sports teams are named or the puma, cougar, or mountain lion—Felis concolor— the best jumper among animals. It can jump to a height of 12.0 ft when leaving the ground at an angle of 45.0 degrees . With what speed, in SI units, does it leave the ground to makethis leap? Answer : 12.0 m/s
You can use any coordinate system you like in order to solve a projectile motion problem. To demonstrate the truth of this statement, consider a ball thrown off the top of a building with a velocity v at an angle ? with respect to the horizontal. Let the building be 54.0 m tall, the initial horizontal velocity be 8.60 m/s, and the initial vertical velocity be 12.5 m/s. Choose your coordinates such that the positive y-axis is upward, and the x-axis is to the right, and the origin is at the point where the ball is released. (a) With these choices, find the ball's maximum height above the ground and the time it takes to reach the maximum height. maximum height above ground m time to reach maximum height s (b) Repeat your calculations choosing the origin at the base of the building. maximum height above ground m time to reach maximum height s
A projectile is launched with speed v at an angle of ?2 above the horizontal going to a maximum height NH=4.08 H.The projectile is then launched with the same initial speed but an angle of ?1 above the horizontal going to a maximum height H.Please derive the ratio of the total time of flight of the projectile as the time for launch at angle ?2 to that time at angle ?1.

A rocket is launched at an angle of 58.0° above the horizontal with an initial speed of 104 m/s. The rocket moves for 3.00 s along its initial line of motion with an acceleration of 30.0 m/s2. At this time, its engines fail and the rocket proceeds to move as a projectile. What is the total time of flight? What is the horizontal range?
In Canadian football, after a touchdown the team has the opportunity to earn one more point by kicking the ball over the bar between the goal posts. The bar is 10.0 ftft above the ground, and the ball is kicked from ground level, 36.0 ftft horizontally from the bar in (Figure 1). Football regulations are stated in English units, but convert to SI units for this problem. If the ball is kicked at 39.0 ∘∘ above the horizontal, what must its initial speed be if it is just to clear the bar? Express your answer in m/sm/s
A ball is hit at an initial speed of 80 m/s. At what angle should it leave the bat if it has to travel 300 m horizontally? (Hint: sin 2ɵ =2sinɵcosɵ)

A drone is launched with a velocity of (55)m/s, (359). Three minutes after the drone is launched it suddenly changed its course to (48)m/s, (190) to avoid high trees on its way. Then, it finally goes back at a rate of (74)m/s, (153). Calculate for the total resultant vector of the drone. Pan am Flight 7 was one of the famous planes to disappear into the Bermuda Triangle, which is en route from San Francisco to Hawaii .
