A snow-covered ski slope makes an angle of 35.0° with the horizontal. When a ski jumper plummets onto the hill, a parcel of splashed snow is thrown up to a maximum displacement of 1.50 m at 16.0° from the vertical in the uphill direction as shown in Figure P3.16. Find the components of its maximum displacement (a) parallel to the surface and (b) perpendicular to the surface.

- 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?

In what direction should he go? (Give the angle with respect to due cast.) (See Sections 3.2 and 3.3.)arrow_forwardFigure P3.28 illustrates typical proportions of male (m) and female (f) anatomies. The displacements d1m and d1f from the soles of the feet to the navel have magnitudes of 104 cm and 64.0 cm. respectively. The displacements d2m and d2f from the navel to outstretched fingertips have magnitudes of 100 cm and 86.0 cm, respectively. Find the vector sum of these displacements d3=d1+d2 for both people.

In an assembly operation illustrated in Figure P3.30, a robot moves an object first straight upward and then also to the cast, around an arc forming one-quarter of a circle of radius 4.80 cm that lies in an east-west vertical plane. The robot then moves the object upward and to the north, through one-quarter of a circle of radius 3.70 cm that lies in a north-south North vertical plane. Find (a) the magnitude of the total dis- placement of the object and (b) the angle the total displacement makes with the vertical. East Figure P3.30arrow_forward

A person is 1000 feet way from the launch point of a hot air balloon. The hot air balloon is starting to come back down at a rate of 5 ft/sec. At what rate is the angle of elevation, θ, changing when the hot air balloon is 400 feet above the ground.arrow_forward7. A force F, of magnitude 6.00 units acts on an object at the ori- gin in a direction 0 = 30.0° above the positive x axis (Fig. P3.7).

- While vacationing in the prairie you go on a nature walk. First you walk 160 m south, then a coyote chases you 260 m southwest, then you walk 300 m in a direction 40° east of north. First draw an accurate graphical representation of your motion using a ruler and a protractor. Then use either trigonometry or components to find the displacement (in m) that will return you to your starting point by the most direct route.arrow_forwardFind the horizontal and vertical components of the 100-m displacement of a superhero who flies from the top of a tall building following the path shown in Fig. P3.18.arrow_forwardA bird flies 100 m due east from a tree, then 200 m northwest (that is, 45° north of west).
