- At t = 0 a rock is projected from ground level with a speed of 15.0 m>s and at an angle of 53.0 above the horizontal. Neglect air resistance. At what two times t is the rock 5.00 m above the ground? At each of these two times, what are the horizontal and vertical components of the velocity of the rock? Let v0x and v0y be in the positive x- and y-directions, respectively.arrow_forwardHere is my problem: From the top of a cliff overlooking a lake, a person throws two stones, as shown in the drawing. The cliff is 15.4 m high. The two stones described have identical initial speeds of v0 = 18.0 m/s and are thrown at an angle θ = 26.7 °, one below the horizontal and one above the horizontal. What is the distance between the points where the stones strike the water? Neglect air resistance. I think I have the correct steps.. but can't seem to get the right answer. I would like someone to walk me through how to solve this.arrow_forwardYou stand still and throw a ball straight upwards with an initial speed of 7.50 m/s.

The distance from the point of contact to the wall is 170 m. The baseball has an angle of 40 degrees with respect to the horizontal. The player will get a home run, if he or she hits the baseball pass the wall. The height of the wall is 6m. \\ a) Will the player get a homerun? if so, the by how much does the baseball clear the wall? b) Now assume that the wall is completely removed. Find the horizontal range and maximum height of the baseball. Also assume that the path of the baseball is symmetrical, so it lands at a location that is 0.22 m above the ground.arrow_forwardWhile standing on the roof of a building, a child tosses a tennis ball with an initial speed of 16 m/s at an angle of 25° below the horizontal.
