Which of the following statements best describes the projectile motion of the balls? Your answer: O They will travel the same horizontal distance in the air, but they will spend different amounts of time in the air. O They will spend the same amount of time in the air, but they will travel different horizontal distances. o The horizontal displacement and time in the air will be the same for both balls. - The horizontal displacements and times in the air will both be different.

You buy a plastic dart gun, and being a clever physics student you decide to do a quick calculation to find its maximum horizontal range. You shoot the gun straight up, and it takes 4.5 s for the dart to land back at the barrel. What is the maximum horizontal range of your gun?
1. A rocket has an initial displacement of 1867 meters from the launchpad. It is moving with a velocity of 26 meters per second^2. What is it's displacement and velocity at t=200 seconds? 2. If this rocket has a jerk of 1 meter per second^3, then what is it's displacement at t=200 seconds? 3. If the rocket were traveling at an elevation angle (i.e., 0 degrees is horizontal and 90 degrees is vertical) of 30 degrees, then what is its horizontal displacement and its vertical displacement in meters?
You buy a plastic dart gun, and being a clever physics student you decide to do a quick calculation to find its maximum horizontal range. You shoot the gun straight up, and it takes 4.2 s for the dart to land back at the barrel. What is the maximum possible horizontal range that could be achieved by your gun, assuming the dart lands at the same level it started?
I’m going to use the equation Vf = Vi + at after we rearrange t = (Vf – Vi) ÷ a t = (-11.5 m/s – 11.5 m/s) ÷ -9.8 m/s2 = 2.35 seconds With a time of 2.35 m/s, and using the equation for constant velocity for our horizontal range, we calculate the range Range = Horizontal Velocity x time Range = 9.6 m/s x 2.35 sec = 22.6m Question: Now, set the muzzle velocity of the cannon to 12 m/s and set the angle of the cannon to 300. First calculate the time and the range using the above approach.
Read and analyze the problem below then solve. Show a complete solution with illustration. 1. The range R of a projectile fired at an acute angle e with the horizontal and with an initial velocity of v meters per second is given by R=V²/g sin20 where g is the acceleration due to gravity, which is 9.81 m/sec² near the Earth's surface. An archer targets an object 100 meters away from her position. If she positions her arrow at an angle of 32° and releases the arrow at the speed of 30 m/sec. will she hit her target? (Show your calculations.)

A rock was thrown horizontally from a 100.0 m high cliff. It strikes the ground 90.0 m from the base of the cliff. a) At what speed was it thrown? b) How long did it take to hit the ground. c) Neglecting wind resistance, which component of velocity is affected by gravity VERTICAL or HORIZONTAL? d) Sketch the trajectory of the rock as it falls to the ground and include the velocity vector at the beginning, midway down, and just before striking the ground. e) After you determine the total time in the air, you can then determine the final vertical velocity vector combined with the horizontal velocity determined earlier. Use these vectors to determine the resultant velocity vector just before landing. Recall using Pythagorean theorem to find the magnitude of the velocity vector and trigonometry for the angle below the horizontal that the resultant vector strikes at.
I'm not sure how to solve this! I tried and got 1.3 / 2.4 seconds. Am i right? Could you explain how to do it if i'm not? Cheers ! In a classic Seinfeld episode, Jerry tosses a loaf of bread (a marble rye) straight upward to his friend George who is leaning out of a third-story window. If the loaf of bread leaves Jerry's hand at a height of 1 m with an initial velocity of 18 m/sec, write an equation for the vertical position of the bread s (in meters) t seconds after release. How long will it take the bread to reach George if he catches the bread on the way up at a height of 16 m? Round to the nearest tenth of a second.
You hit a golf ball into the air with an initial horizontal speed of 40 m/s and an initial vertical upward speed of 50 m/s. Ignore air resistance and use g = 10 m/s2. How much time does it take for the ball to reach its maximum vertical displacement? What is the maximum vertical displacement of the ball? What is the horizontal displacement of the ball when the ball is at its maximum vertical displacement?

Connor McDavid is working on his snapshot accuracy and during one particular shot, he is positioned a horizontal distance of 20 m from the net. The target he ends up hitting in the net is 0.7 m above the ice surface and when he makes the successful shot, the puck leaves his stick and the ice at an angle of 8° above the horizon.What is the initial speed (magnitude of resultant velocity) of the puck just as it leaves the stick or surface of the ice?During the shot, how long does it take for the puck to travel from the stick or ice to the raised target located in the net?
