A balloon is rising vertically over a point on the ground at the rate of 15 ft/sec. A point B on the ground level is located 32 ft from A. When the balloon is 48 ft from A, at what rate is its distance from B changing?
An Orc archer below a 54 meter high tower (different height from the wall from problem 3) fires his crossbow at 45 m/s at a 53.1 degree angle from horizontal. What is the closest that the orc can stand to the tower to exactly hit a target on the top of the tower? What is the farthest that the orc can stand to the tower to exactly hit a target on the top of the tower? What is the highest point (above the tower, not the ground!) that the orc’s arrow can reach firing at this velocity and angle?
Could you write out the kinematic variables? I can't tell which ones are x and y components. I also can't seem to place the values on a right traingle aside from the given angle.

I need to find the angle of projection for the maximum range. I have the following information: angle (degrees) and average range (cm). Here are two angles and the range for each. Angle Average Range (cm) 10 146.5 45 272.5 I think that I use this formula but I am not for sure. R=(V20 sin 2 theta)/g Can you help me figure this out so that I can do the rest of the angles and ranges.
