A projectile is launched from ground level at an angle θ to the top of a cliff which is 195 m away and 155 m high. If the projectile lands right on the cliff edge 7.6 s after it is fired, find the initial velocity of the projectile.
For a projectile fired at an angle of 48 degrees and having an initial velocity of 65 m/s, what is the horizontal
A rugby player passes the ball 9.75 m across the field, where it is caught at the same height as it left his hand. At what angle was the ball thrown if its initial speed was 12.0 m/s, assuming that the smaller of the two possible angles was used? What other angle gives the same range? For the pass using the smaller of the two angles, how long is the ball in the air?
For a projectile fired at an angle of 48 degrees and having an initial velocity of 65 m/s, what is the horizontal component of the initial velocity?
A projectile is launched from ground level to the top of a cliff which is 195 m away and 155 m high. If the projectile lands on top of the cliff 7.6 s later it is fired, find the magnitude and direction of the initial velocity of the projectile.
In a football game, a player wants to kick the ball as far as possible, but also make sure that it stays in the air as long as possible, so that there is enough time for other players to run down the field and tackle the receiver. If the football is supposed to travel a distance of 49.8 m and stay in the air for 4.41 s, what initial angle and speed does the player have to provide? You can assume that the initial and final vertical coordinate are zero.
A football game begins with a kickoff in which the ball travels a horizontal distance of 37 m(approximately 40 yd) and lands at the same level from which it was kicked. If the ball waskicked at an angle of 44 ° above the horizontal, what was its initial speed?
A football player punts the football so that it will have a “hang time” (time of flight) of 4.5 s and land 46 m away. If the ball leaves the player’s foot 150 cm above the ground, what must be the (a) magnitude and (b) angle (relative to the horizontal) of the ball’s initial velocity?
A basketball player who is 2.00 m tall is standing on the floor 10.0 m from the basket as in figure. If he shoots the ball at a 40.0° angle with the horizontal at what initial speed must he throw so that it goes through the hoop without striking the backboard? the basket height is 3.05 m.
A projectile is fired with an initial speed of 40 m/s at angle of 23 degrees above the horizontal on a long flat firing range. Determine (1) the maximum vertical distance reached by the projectile, (2) the total time in the air, (3) the range of the projectile, (4) the velocity of the projectile 2 s after firing.

If the football is supposed to travel a distance of 49.8 m and stay in the air for 4.41 s, what initial angle and speed does the player have to provide? You can assume that the initial and final vertical coordinate are zero. Hint: Start from the range equation that you derived in class.
