Q2) The position of an artillery, with a speed of projectile 650", which can fire in any direction above the horizontal plane and whose direction of fire can be adjusted necessarily and sufficiently fast, is FA(t) = 30 x 10 m â+20x 10 m ŷ. must the artillery be fired in order that the target is terminated as earlier as possible? (Ignore the friction, the air resistance and assume that there is no Coriolis force)

A red train traveling at 72 km/h and a green train traveling at 144 km/h are headed toward each other along a straight, level track.When they are 950 m apart, each engineer sees the other’s train and applies the brakes.The brakes slow each train at the rate of 1.0 m/s2. Is there a collision? If so, answer yes and give the speed of the red train and the speed of the green train at impact, respectively. If not, answer no and give the separation between the trains when they stop
14.53 A ball is thrown vertically downward with an initial speed of v0 at a height of 2m above the floor and rebounds from the floor to the same height of 2m before falling downward again. If e=0.7 between the ball and the floor determine the value of v0.
(III) Show that the time required for a projectile to reach its highest point is equal to the time for it to return to its original height if air resistance is neglible.
When baseball outfielders throw the ball, they usually allow it to take one bounce, on the theory that the ball arrives at its target sooner that way. Suppose that, after the bounce, the ball rebounds at the same angle that it had when it was released (as in Fig. P3.48), but loses half its speed, (a) Assuming that the ball is always thrown with the same initial speed, at what angle should the ball be thrown in order to go the same distance D with one bounce as a ball thrown upward at 45.0 with no bounce? (b) Determine the ratio of the times for the one-bounce and no-bounce throws. Figure P3.48
A farm truck travels due east with a constant speed of 9.50 m/s along a horizontal road. A boy riding in the back of the truck tosses a can of soda upward (Fig. P3.40) and catches it at the same location in the truck bed, but 16.0 m farther down the road. Ignore any effects of air resistance. (a) At what angle to the vertical does the boy throw the can, relative to the moving truck? (b) What is the cans initial speed relative to the truck? (c) What is the shape of the cans trajectory as seen by the boy? (d) What is the shape of the cans trajectory as seen by a stationary observer on the ground? (e) What is the initial velocity of the can, relative to the stationary observer? Figure P3.40
One strategy in a snowball fight is to throw a snowball at a high angle over level ground. Then, while your opponent is watching that snowball, you throw a second one at a low angle timed to arrive before or at the same time as the first one. Assume both snowballs are thrown with a speed of 25.0 m/s. The first is thrown at an angle of 70.0 with respect to the horizontal. (a) At what angle should the second snowball be thrown to arrive at the same point as the first? (b) How many seconds later should the second snowball be thrown after the first for both to arrive at the same time?
A projectile is launched on the Earth with a certain initial velocity and moves without air resistance. Another projectile is launched with the same initial velocity on the Moon, where the acceleration due to gravity is one-sixth as large. How does the maximum altitude of the projectile on the Moon compare with that of the projectile on the Earth? (a) It is one-sixth as large. (b) It is the same. (c) It is 6 times larger. (d) It is 6 times larger. (e) It is 36 times larger.
A strong softball player smacks the ball at a height of 0.7 m above home plate. The ball leaves the players bat at an elevation angle of 35 and travels toward a fence 2 m high and 60 m away in center field. What must the initial speed of the softball be to clear the center field fence? Ignore air resistance.
A student derides to measure the muzzle velocity of a pellet shot from his gun. He points the gun horizontally. He place a target on a vertical wall a distance x away from the gun. He pellet hits the target a vertical distance y below the gun. (a) Show that the position of the pellet when traveling through the air is given by y = Ax2, where A it a constant. (b) Express the constant A In terms of the initial (muzzle) velocity and the free-fall acceleration. (c) If x = 3.00 m and y = 0 210 m, what is the initial speed of the pellet?
Neglecting air resistance, why would a ball projected horizontally and another ball dropped at the same time from the same initial height hit the ground together?
a home run is hit in such a way that the baseball just clears a wall 21.0 m high, located 130 m from home plate. the ball is hit at an angle of 35.0 degrees to the horizontal, and air resisitance is negligible. find the initial speed of the ball. find the time it takes the ball to reach the wall, and find the velocity components and the speed of the ball when it reaches the wall. assume the ball is hit at a height of 1.00 m above the ground.
Georgia, standing on the back of the pick-up truck, wants to throw her last piece of balut to her mortal enemy, Emma. before the truck started moving, the two women are separated by a distance of 2 m. For two seconds, the truck uniformly accelerated until it reached a velocity of 4 m/s which it then maintained. With hatred, Georgia throws the last piece of balut with a velocity of 12.5 m/s at an angle of 40° from horizontal, measured relative to the truck. If she makes the throw 2.8 seconds after the truck started moving, will she be able to hit Emma? Note that Emma is at rest due to exhaustion from their earlier fight and she cannot dodge the balut. Set your origin at point A. Neglect air resistance.
