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 skier is travelling horizontally across frictionless snow at 10 m/s. He goes up an also frictionless slope and his speed drops to 5 m/s at the top when he resumed moving horizontally. How high did he go?
A water slide is connected so that a swimmer, starting from rest at the top of the slide, leaves the end of the slide travelling horizontally. one person hits the water 6m from the end of the slide in a time 0.4 seconds after leaving the slide. ignoring friction and air resistance, find the height H. b) how does the answer change if the swimmer leves the end at an angle of 10 degrees above the horizontal?
A 5-kg block slides off the horizontal surface of a table with initial speed 1.45 m/s and hits the ground a horizontal distance 0.754 m from the table. How high is the table?
Vhas Thed is standing on a bridge. He is at a height 83.6 m above the water below. Suddenly he received a call from his cell phone that makes him mad and throws his phone horizontally off the bridge with a speed of 25.7 m/s. How far does the cell phone travel horizontally before hitting the water? Draw an Illustration.
A motorcycle daredevil plans to ride up a 2.00 m high 26.0° ramp, sail across a 10-m-wide pool filled with hungry crocodiles, and land at ground level on the other side. He has done this stunt many times and approaches it with confidence. Unfortunately, the motorcycle engine dies just as starts up the ramp. He is going 14.9 m/s at that instant, and the rolling friction of his rubber tires is not negligible. Assuming that the local acceleration due to gravity is -9.80 m/s2, calculate the landing point (in m) relative to the 10.0 m edge of the pool. (-1.0 m means he was 1.0 m short and in the pool, +1.0 m means he landed 1.0 m past the edge). The coefficient of rolling friction for rubber on ramp is 0.02.
A boy wishes to throw a ball over a flat roofed school house that stands 12 m wide and 7.5 m high on level ground. Assuming that the ball will leave his hand at a height of 5 m above the ground,determine how far from the wall he should take his hand in order to make the ball clear the roof with least effort, that is, with minimum velocity.
What is the launch speed of a projectile that rises vertically above the Earth to an altitude equal to 4 R earth before coming to rest momentarily?
If there is a person on a cliff that is 200m above the beach and launches a ball from a cannon at 45 degrees to a person, how far is that person from the base of the cliff? The velocity of the muzzle is 50m/s and friction can be ignored.
In 1987, as a Halloween stunt, two sky divers passed a pumpkin back and forth between them while they were in free fall just west of Chicago.The stunt was great fun until the last sky diver with the pumpkin opened his parachute. The pumpkin broke free from his grip, plummeted about 0.5 km, ripped through the roof of a house, slammed into the kitchen floor, and splattered all over the newly remodeled kitchen. From the sky diver’s viewpoint and from the pumpkin’s viewpoint, why did the sky diver lose control of the pumpkin?
