In the Marvel comic series X-Men, Colossus would sometimes throw Wolverine toward an enemy in what was called a fastball special. Suppose Colossus throws Wolverine at an angle of 8 = 28.1° with respect to the ground (see figure below). Wolverine is d= 2.11 m above the ground when he is released, and he leaves Colossus's hands with a speed of v, = 20.4 m/s. (a) Using conservation of energy and the components of the initial velocity, find the maximum height attained by Wolverine during the flight. 7.981 x m (b) Using conservation of energy, what is Wolverine's speed the instant before he hits the ground? 12.507 x m/s

The initial speed of the ball is v0 = 22.2 m/s, the angle the ball is hit at is θ = 43o, and g = 8.4. How far away does the ball hit the ground?
A batter hots a ball, giving it a velocity of 100 ft/s at 40 degree angle to the horizontal. One second after the ball is hit, a fielder standing in the direct path of the ball at a distance of 250 ft starts running after the ball at a constant speed. How fast must be run to catch the ball?The answer is 18.7ft/s

Johnny is standing on a ladder picking apples in his grandfather’s orchard. As he pulls each apple off the tree, he tosses it into a basket that sits on the ground 3.0 m below at a horizontal distance of 2.0 m from him. How fast must Johnny throw the apple (horizontally) in order for them to land in the basket?
A person stands at the edge of a cliff and throws a pebble horizontally over the edge with a speed of v0 = 20.0 m/s. The pebble leaves his hand at a height of h = 52.0 m above level ground at the bottom of the cliff, as shown in the figure. Note the coordinate system in the figure, where the origin is at the bottom of the cliff, directly below where the pebble leaves the hand.
