The record distance in the sport of throwing cowpats is 81.1 m. This record toss was set by Steve Urner of the United States in 1981. Assuming the initial launch angle was 45° and neglecting air resistance, answer the following. (a) Determine the initial speed of the projectile.m/s(b) Determine the total time the projectile was in flight.s(c) Qualitatively, how would the answers change if the launch angle were greater than 45°? Explain.
youtube.com/watch?v=srDeACrSf-o&t=12s In the video, I drop a ball off a three-story balcony. We know that objects in freefall follow the equation for height h, in meters, h=−4.9t2+ch=-4.9t2+c, where t is time in seconds, and c is the initial height. A student timed the drop at 1.51 seconds.Use this to determine the height from which the ball was dropped, to at least 2 decimal places.

Question 1: Emily challenges her husband, David, to catch a $1 bill as follows. She holds the bill vertically, with the center of the bill between David's index finger and thumb. David must catch the bill after Emily releases it without moving his hand downward. If his reaction time is 0.2 s, will he succeed? Yes or No Explain your reasoning. Question 2: In Bosnia, the ultimate test of a young man's courage used to be to jump off a 400-year-old bridge (destroyed in 1993; rebuilt in 2004) into the River Neretva, 23 m below the bridge. (a) How long did the jump last? ___________s(b) How fast was the jumper traveling upon impact with the river? _____________m/s(c) If the speed of sound in air is 340 m/s, how long after the jumper took off did a spectator on the bridge hear the splash? __________________s
Sarah is driving on a freeway in a forest at 13.0m/s when suddenly a deer runs in front of her and stands still out of fright. The deer is 20.0m in front of Sarah when she steps on the brakes with a deceleration of magnitude 4.59 m/s2A) Find the stopping distance of Sarah. Does she hit the deer? Give support to your explanation.B) How long (how much time) does it take Sarah to travel half of the stopping distance in part (a)?

On the Apollo 14 mission to the moon, astronaut Alan Shepard hit a golf ball with a golf club improvised from a tool. The free-fall acceleration on the moon is 1/61/6 of its value on earth. Suppose he hit the ball with a speed of 28 m/sm/s at an angle 31o above the horizontal. Express your answer using two significant figures. (a) How long was the ball in flight?(b) How far did it travel?(c) How much farther would it have traveled on the moon than on earth?
Two cars, C and D travel in the same direction on a long, straight section of highway. During a particular time interval delta t, car D is ahead of car C and is speeding up while car C is slowing down. 1) During the interval delta t, it is observed that car C gains on car D (i.e., the distance between the cars decreases). Explain how this is possible, and give a specific example of such a case.
Hi I am in physics 1 and I need help with this problem. It saids a boy runs in an open field. He runs 233m due north in 77 seconds, turns 90 degrees to his left and runs 178m in 93 seconds. Sketch a map of his motion and find the following quantities of his motion during this period from starting time to final time a) Map of his motion b) The total distance he runs (233m + 178m= 411m) c) The displacement from starting position to final position. What I have thus far is I got c=sqrt (233)^2+(178)^2=293m. Would I subtract this number from the total distance? Please includes detailed steps of how to solve this
