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?

In the Superbowl, a quarterback throws a football while standing at the very center of the field on the 50 yard line. The ball leaves his hand at a height of 5 ft and has initial velocity of ~v(0) =< 40, 35, 32 > ft/sec. Assume an acceleration of 32 ft/sec2 due to gravity, i.e., ~a(t) =< 0, 0, −32 >, and that the vector ~i points down fieldtoward the endzone and that the vector ~j points to the sideline. The field is 150 ft in width and 300 ft in length.(a) Determine the position function that gives the position of the ball t seconds after it isthrown. (b) The ball is caught by a player 5 ft above the ground. Is the player in bounds or out ofbounds when he receives the ball? (Assume the player is standing vertically with bothtoes on the ground at the time of reception.)
A projectile is shot at ahill, the base of which is 300 m away. Theprojectile is shot at 60°above the horizontalwith an initial speed of 75 m/s. The hill can beapproximated by a plane sloped at to thehorizontal. Relative to the coordinate systemshown in the following figure, the equation ofthis straight line is y= (tan 20°) x−109 in SIunits. Where on the hill does the projectileland? How long does the trip take?
