A football player punts the ball at a 45.0° angle. Without an effect from the wind, the ball would travel 60.0 m horizontally. (a) What is the initial speed of the ball? (b) When the ball is near its maximum height it experiences a brief gust of wind that reduces its horizontal velocity by 1.50 m/s. What distance does the ball travel horizontally?
(a) Another airplane is flying in a jet stream that is blowing at 45.0 m/s in a direction 20° south of east (as in Exercise 3.58). Its direction of motion relative to the Earth is 45.0° south of west, while its direction of travel relative to the air is 5.00° south of west. What is the airplane's speed relative to the air mass? (b) What is the airplane's speed relative to the Earth?

A person standing at the top of a hemispherical rock of radius R kicks a ball (initially at rest on the top of the rock) to give it horizontal velocity vi as shown in Figure P3.56. (a) What must be its minimum initial speed if the ball is never to hit the rock after it is kicked? (b) With this initial speed, how far from the base of the rock does the ball hit the ground?
A rugby player passes the ball 7.00 m across the field, where it is caught at the same height as it left his hand. (a) At what angle was the ball thrown if its initial speed was 12.0 m/s, assuming that the smaller of the possible angles was used? (b) What other angle gives the same range, and why would it not be used? (c) How long did this pass take?
Figure OQ4.1 shows a bird's-eye view of a car going around a highway curve. As the car moves from point 1 to point 2, its speed doubles. Which of the vectors (a) through (e) shows the direction of the cars average acceleration between these two points?
A glider aircraft initially traveling due west at 85.0 km/h encounters a sudden gust of wind at 35.0 km/h directed toward the northeast (Fig. P3.62). What are the speed and direction of the glider relative to the ground during the wind gust? (The velocity of the glider with respect to the ground is the velocity of the gilder with respect to the wind plus the velocity of the wind with respect to the ground.)
A person standing at the top of a hemispherical rock of radius R kicks a ball (initially at rest on the top of the rock) to give it horizontal velocity V, as shown in Figure P4.84.

An aircraft flies at constant altitude (with respect to sea level) over the South Rim of the Grand Canyon (Fig. P3.40, page 83). Consider a coordinate system such that the positive x axis points to the east, and the positive y axis points north. The aircrafts initial position and velocity are 1350 m at an angle of 145 and 60.0 m/s at an angle of 55.0 where both angles are measured counterclockwise with respect to the positive x axis. The aircrafts acceleration is 4.0 m/s2 at an angle of 195 with respect to the positive x axis. a. What is the velocity of the aircraft after 7.50 s have elapsed? b. What is the position vector of the aircraft after 7.50 s have elapsed?
