In 1999, Robbie Knievel was the first to jump the Grand Canyon on a motorcycle. At a narrow part of the canyon (69.0 m wide) and traveling 35.8 m/s off the takeoff ramp, he reached the other side. What was his launch angle?
In the control tower at a regional airport, an air traffic controller monitors two aircraft as their positions change with respect to the control tower. One plane is a cargo carrier Boeing 747 and the other plane is a Douglas DC-3. The Boeing is at an altitude of 2500 m, climbing at 100 above the horizontal, and moving 30 north of west. The DC-3 is at an altitude of 3000 m, climbing at 50 above the horizontal, and cruising directly west. (a) Find the position vectors of the planes relative to the control tower. (b) What is the distance between the planes at the moment the air traffic controller makes a note about their positions?
The F-35B Lighting II is a short-takeoff and vertical landing fighter jet. If it does a vertical takeoff to 20.00-rn height above the ground and then follows a flight path angled at 30 with respect to the ground for 20.00 km, what is the final displacement?
A Lockheed Martin F-35 II lighting jet takes off from an aircraft carrier with a runway length of 90 m and a takeoff speed 70 m/s at the end of the runway. Jets are catapulted into airspace from the deck of an aircraft carrier with two sources of propulsion: the jet propulsion and the catapult. At the point of leaving the deck of the aircraft carrier, the F-35’s acceleration decreases to a constant acceleration of 5.0m/s2 at 30 with respect to the horizontal. (a) What is the initial acceleration of the F-35 on the deck of the aircraft carrier to make it airborne? (b) Write the position and velocity of the F-35 in unit vector notation from the point it leaves the deck of the aircraft carrier. (c) At what altitude is the fighter 5.0 s after it leaves the deck of the aircraft carrier? (d) What is its velocity and speed at this time? (e) How far has it traveled horizontally?
A cruise ship sails due north at 4.50 m/s while a coast guard patrol boat heads 45.0º north of west at 5.20 m/s. What are (a) the x- and (b) y-components of the velocity of the cruise ship relative to the patrol boat?

Two cars, one going due West at the rate of 100 km/hr and the other goingNorth at the rate of 70 km/hr, are traveling toward the intersection of the tworoads. At what rate are the cars approaching each other at the instant when thefirst car is0.3 km and the second car is 0.2 km from the intersection?
A biker travelled 270.0 meters 42o N of E to point A, then 80.0 meters west to point B, and finally, 120.0 m northwest to reach point C. (a) How far and in what direction should he travel to go back to where he started? (Ans: 267.92 m, 82.32o S of W) (b) From the starting point, how far and in what direction should he go to reach point B in a straight line? (Ans: 217.25 m, 56.26o N of E
An artillery shell is fired with an initial velocity of 300 m/s at 55° above the horizontal. To clear an avalanche, it explodes on a mountainside 42.0 s after firing. What are the x and y coordinates of the shell where it explodes, relative to its firing point? 15 m/s. If the brick is in flight for 3s, how tall is the building? ANS. 25m
While scavenging for acorns before the big winter, Scrat the Squirrel leaves his tree house and skitters along 8.00 m at a heading of 40.0° SoE to collect two acorns. Then, he traipses off 10.0 m West to snag another acorn. Finally, he sees a big prize and hurriedly rushes 12.0 m at 20.0° EoN. If he must now make it back to his tree house, how far and in what direction should he head to go home? I know the answer I just don’t know how to get it. Answer: 6.14 m @ 87.8° NoE Thanks!!
A physicist runs straight south at a velocity of 8mi/hr. The wind is at her back (directly from the north, relative to Earth) at a velocity of 20 mi/hr. She decides to change her course so that the wind will strike her right side (i.e. at 90-degrees relative to her motion). By what angle must she change her direction of course?
