Tred, an alien on a planet where |g| = 1.7 m/s 2 , strikes a golf ball giving the ball a velocity of 36 m/s [40 o above the planet’s horizontal]. The ball lands in a crater floor that is 15 m below the level where it was struck. Determine: a) the maximum height of the ball [ b) the time of flight of the ball c) the horizontal range of the ball

An archer fish spies a meal of a grasshopper sitting on a long stalk of grass at the edge of the pond in which he is swimming. The fish is to successfully spit at and strike the grasshopper, which is 0.200 m away horizontally and 0.335 m above his mouth. What is the minimum speed at which the archer fish must spit?
A quarterback passes the football downfield at 19.0 m/s. It leaves his hand 1.70 m above the ground and is caught by a receiver 36.0 m away at the same height. What is the maximum height of the ball on its way to the receiver? so y0 = 1.7m x(t) = 36m , i guess i will need angle and t to get the answer, but i have no idea how to find them
Particles A and B move to the right along a horizontal line. They start at a point O, s meters isthe directed distance of the particle from O at t seconds, and the equations of motion for particlesA and B are s = 4t2 + 5t and s = 7t2 + 3t, respectively. If t = 0 at the start, for what values of twill the velocity of particle A exceed the velocity of particle B?
In one contest at the county fair, a spring-loaded plunger launches a ball at a speed of 3.1 m/s from one corner of a smooth, flat board that is tilted up at a 20∘ angle. To win, you must make the ball hit a small target at the adjacent corner, 2.20 m away. At what angle θ should you tilt the ball launcher?
A frat boy throws a ping pong ball from 0.6 m above a table at 5 m/s and wants to land it in a 20 cm cup 1 m away along the table. At what angle above the horizontal should he throw it?
A sniper atop a building 150m high fired a bullet parallel to the horizontal with a speed of 1800km/h. Assuming that the bullet will hit its target, what would be the resulting range?
A bullet is traced with a fixed ruler and flash twice witha time interval of 2 ± 0.06 ms. If the position of the bullet determined is 23.0 ± 0.5 cm firstand the position of the bullet is 37.5 ± 0.5 cm next. Calculate the speed of the bullet, V(=D/T).
Hockey player A carries the puck on his stick and moves in the direction shown with a speed vA = 3.0 m/s. In passing the puck to his stationary teammate B, by what angle α should the direction of his shot trail the line of sight if he launches the puck with a speed of 6.6 m/s relative to himself?
An archer fish spies a meal of a grasshopper sitting on a long stalk of grass at the edge of the pond in which he is swimming. The fish is to successfully spit at and strike the grasshopper, which is 0.200 m away horizontally and 0.435 m above his mouth. What angle (in degrees) above the horizontal must he spit? Assume vfy = 0.
A ball is tossed horizontally from the highest point of a 75 m building and lands 150 m from the base of the building. Ignore air resistance, and use a coordinate system whose origin is at the highest point of the building, with positive y upwards and positive x in the direction of the throw. How long is the ball in the air for, in seconds?
If an object is located 20m to the right of the origin at 1:00 PM, and later the object is located 30 m to the left of the origin at 2:00 PM, then the displacement from 1:00 PM to 2:00 PM is what?
