Suppose you fired your ball from a height of h=1.5 m and at a launch angle of θ=0o and it hit the floor a distance of x=1.9 m from a point on the ground directly below the launch point. Considering the situation described above, what is the initial speed (in m/s) with which you cannon fires the ball?

A student standing on a cliff throws a stone from a vertical height of d=8.0m�=8.0m above the level ground with velocity v0=24m/s at an angle θ=15 below the horizontal, as shown. It moves without air resistance. Use a Cartesian coordinate system with the origin at the initial position of the stone. With what speed, in meters per second, does the stone strike the ground?
Consider a projectile launched form ground level at an angle of elevation with an initial velocity . The maximum horizontal range is given by xmax=(v 2/0 sin2θ)/g, where g is the acceleration due to gravity. Here is the problem: If a soccer ball is kicked from ground level with an initial velocity of 28 m/sec, what is the smallest positive angle at which the player should kick the ball to reach a teammate 48m down the field? Assume that the ball reaches the teammate at ground level on the fly. Round to the nearest tenth of a degree.
A cannon launches a cannonball from level ground with an initial speed of 80 m/s at an angle of 280 above the horizontal. What horizontal distance does the cannonball travel when the cannonball returns to the ground? Given the same initial velocity of launch, at what other angle above the ground can the cannonball be fired and achieve the same horizontal range as before? (Assume that g = 9.81 m/s2.) a. Range = 540 m, and angle = 420 above the horizontal b. Range = 600 m, and angle = 620 above the horizontal c. Range = 270 m, and angle = 620 above the horizontal d. Range = 540 m, and angle = 620 above the horizontal e. Range = 270 m, angle = 420 above the horizontal
A student standing on a cliff throws a stone from a vertical height of d=8.0mabove the level ground with velocity v0=15m/s at an angle θ=18∘ below the horizontal.It moves without air resistance. Use a Cartesian coordinate system with the origin at the initial position of the stone. With what speed, in meters per second, does the stone strike the ground?
You launch a ball from a height of 10.0 m so that the horizontal component of its launch (initial) velocity is 2.183 m/s. If it lands on the ground (yf = 0.00 m) a distance of 4.831 m away, what was the original launch velocity (magnitude and angle above the horizontal)?
Suppose that a shot putter can put a shot at the worldclass speed 15.00 m/s and at a height of 2.160 m.What horizontal distance would the shot travel if the launch angle is (a) 45.00° and (b) 42.00°? The answers indicate that the angle of 45°, which maximizes the range of projectile motion, does not maximize the horizontal distance when the launch and landing are at different heights.
A fireworks show is choreographed to have two shells cross paths at a height of 154 feet and explode at an apex of 191 feet under normal weather conditions. If the shells have a launch angle θ = 56° above the horizontal, determine the common launch speed v0 for the shells, the separation distance d between the launch points A and B, and the time t from the launch at which the shells explode.
A golfer is attempting to reach the elevated green by hitting his ball under a low-hanging branch in one tree A, but over the top of a second tree B. If the launch speed of the golf ball is v0 = 112 mi /hr, what launch angle θ will put the first impact point of the ball closest to the pin? How far from the pin (distance d) is this impact point?
You throw a ball at a launch speed of 6.7 m/s at an angle of 52.5 degrees to the horizontal. Assuming that the ball lands at the same level as the launch height, what is the maximum range of the ball in metres? Give your answer to 2 sf.
Consider two projectiles whose initial position is the same height, y = 5m. Projectile 1 is fired horizontally with initial velocity horizontal speed v = 10 m/s, while Projectile 2 is dropped. How far has Projectile 1 traveled horizontally when it strikes the ground?
William Tell is said to have shot an apple off his son’s head with an arrow. If the arrow was shot with an initial speed of 50.0 m/s and the boy was 26.0 m away, at what launch angle above the horizontal did Bill aim the arrow? (Assume that the arrow and apple are initially at the same height above the ground. Hint: sin2θ = 2sinθcosθ)
Two projectiles are thrown with the same initial speed, one at an angle u with respect to the level ground and the other at angle 90° − θ. Both projectiles strike the ground at the same distance from the projection point. Are both projectiles in the air for the same length of time?
