A Chinook salmon can jump out of water with a speed of 7.30 m/s . How far horizontally ? can a Chinook salmon travel through the air if it leaves the water with an initial angle of ?=30.0° with respect to the horizontal? (Let the horizontal direction the fish travels be in the +? direction, and let the upward vertical direction be the +? direction. Neglect any effects due to air resistance.)
A hose lying on the ground shoots a stream of water upward at an angle of 40° to the horizontal. The speed of the water is 15 m/s as it leaves the hose. How high will it strike a wall which is 8 m away?
A regulation volleyball court measures L = 18.0 meters in length and d = 2.43 meters in height. A volleyball player hits the ball from a height of h = 1.50 m just over the backline, and the initial velocity of the ball creates an angle of q = 30° with the ground. At what initial speed must the ball be struck such that it barely clears the net?
A hose lying on the ground shoots a stream of water upward at an angle of 40° to the horizontal.The speed of the water is 20 m/s as it leaves the hose. How high up will it strike a wall which is 8.0 m away?
An airplane flying horizontally with a speed of 500 km/h at a height of 800 m drops a crate of supplies (see the following figure). If the parachute fails to open, how far in front of the release point does the crate hit the ground?
In the blizzard of ’88, a rancher was forced to drop hay bales from an airplane to feed her cattle. The plane flew horizontally at 160 km/hr and dropped the bales from a height of 80 m above the flat range, (a) She wanted the bales of hay to land 30 m behind the cattle so as to not hit them. Where should she push the bales out of the airplane? (b) To not hit the cattle, what is the largest time error she could make while pushing the bales out of the airplane? Ignore air resistance.
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 firefighter, a distance d from a burning building, directs a stream of water from a fire hose at angle i above the horizontal as shown in Figure P3.16. If the initial speed of the stream is vi, at what height h does the water strike the building? Figure P3.16
A playground is on the flat roof of a city school, 6.00 m abovethe street below (Fig. P3.19). The vertical wall of the buildingis h = 7.00 m high, to form a 1-m-high railing around the playground.A ball has fallen to the street below, and a passerbyreturns it by launching it at an angle of θ = 53.0° above thehorizontal at a point d = 24.0 m from the base of the buildingwall. The ball takes 2.20 s to reach a point vertically abovethe wall. (a) Find the speed at which the ball was launched.(b) Find the vertical distance by which the ball clears the wall.(c) Find the horizontal distance from the wall to the point onthe roof where the ball lands.
Suppose a chinook salmon needs to jump a waterfallthat is 1.50 m high. If the fish starts from a distance 1.00 mfrom the base of the ledge over which the waterfall flows,(a) find the x - and y - components of the initial velocity the salmon would need to just reach the ledge at the top of itstrajectory. (b) Can the fish make this jump? (Note that a chinooksalmon can jump out of the water with an initial speedof 6.26 m/s.)
The cliff divers of Acapulco push off horizontally from rock platforms about hhh = 31 mm above the water, but they must clear rocky outcrops at water level that extend out into the water LLL = 5.2 mm from the base of the cliff directly under their launch point (Figure 1). What minimum pushoff speed is necessary to clear the rocks? Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units. How long are they in the air?
