On a planet very similar to Earth, but slightly denser, where acceleration due to gravity is 10 m/s2, a projectile is fire vertically from a height of 100 meters with an initial velocity of 40 m/s. Its position above the ground after t seconds is given by h(t) = 100 + 40t − 5t2 meters.find the velocity of the projectile as it hits the ground
the leprechaun in the shamrock patch was named O'Malley and since he was disrupted from sitting in his patch he decided to go off and play a round of his favorite sport in where leprechaun kick a gold coin from a tee into a post 317m away. if he kicked the coin at an angle of 60 degree at a velocity of 60 m/s how high was the arch of the rainbow created by the trajectory? how long did it take to get to the pot? the officials in dublin decided to add a goal post to "kick O coin" 300 meters away and so many 33 meters high. would O'Malley's kick have cleared this goal post?
in order to meausure the acceleration due to gravity on the moon, an astronaut fires a projectile from a launcher. the initial velocity is 57 ft/s at 22.5 degrees and the projectiles range was measured to be 220 ft with equal launch and landing heights. what is the g (in terms of ft/s2) on the moon as calculated by this data?
In 1865, Jules Verne proposed sending men to the Moon by firing a space capsule from a 220-m-long cannon with final speed of 10.97 km/s. What would have been the unrealistically large acceleration experienced by the space travelers during their launch? (A human can stand an acceleration of 15g for a short time.) Compare your answer with thr free-fall acceleration, 9.80 m/s^2
On planet Arcon, the maximum horizontal range of a projectile launched at 10 m/s is 20 m. What is the acceleration of gravity on this planet?
In Dover, Delaware, a post-Halloween traditionis “Punkin Chunkin,” in which contestants build cannons, catapults, trebuchets, and other devices to launch pumpkins and compete for the greatest distance. Though hard to believe, pumpkinshave been projected a distance of 4694 feet in this contest. What isthe minimum initial speed needed for such a shot?
se the position equation s = −16t2 + v0t + s0 where s represents the height of an object (in feet), v0 represents the initial velocity of the object (in feet per second), s0 represents the initial height of the object (in feet), and t represents the time (in seconds). A projectile is fired straight upward from ground level (s0 = 0) with an initial velocity of 128 feet per second. (b) When will the height be less than 128 feet? (Only consider the time from launch to landing. Enter your answer using interval notation.)
A student ires a canonball with a speed of 35.0m/s from a height of 50.om/s at an angle of 62 degrees. How long did the ball remain in the air ? How far from the base of the building did the ball land? How fast was the ball moving as it struck the ground?
In an experiment, a shearwater (a seabird) was taken from its nest, flown 5150 km away, and released. The bird found its way back to its nest 13.5 days after release. If we place the origin at the nest and extend the +x-axis to the release point, what was the bird’s average velocity in m/s (a) for the return flight and (b) for the whole episode, from leaving the nest to returning?
An object is shot horizontally off a cliff which is 6.11 meters high. The forward speed when it is fired is 2.213. How far forward from the firing point does it land? (Your answer should be in meters, but don't write the unit; just the nuumber.) Use the acceleration due to gravity near the earth's surface, g=10m/s^2
A particle travels, to the right, at a constant rate, of 6.5m/s. It, suddenly, is given a vertical acceleration of 3.2m/s22, for 3.9s. What is its direction of travel, after the acceleration, with respect to the horizontal? Answer between -180 and +180. What is the speed at this time? Answer in units of m/s.
A stone is thrown from the top of a building upward at an angle of 30 degrees with respect of the horizontal, and with an intial speed of 20m/s. If the height of the building is 45 meters, how long is the stone in flight, how far does it land, and what is the speed just before impact?
