Water from a fire hose is directed toward a building as shown in the figure below. The water leaves the hose at a speed of
vi = 40.0 m/s
and at an angle of
θi = 35.0°
above the horizontal. The base of the hose (at ground level) is a horizontal distance
d = 51.0 m
away from the building. Find the height h (in m) where the water strikes the building.
A fireman on the ground sprays water from a fire hose onto a building. The water leaves the hose with velocity vector vi at an acute angle θi above the horizontal and curves downwards just before it strikes the building at a height h above the ground. The building is a horizontal distance d from the fireman.

A diver explores a shallow reef off the coast of Belize. She initially swims 90.0 m north, makes a turn to the east and continues for 200.0 m, then follows a big grouper for 80.0 m in the direction 30° north of east. In the meantime, a local current displaces her by 150.0 m south. Assuming the current is no longer present, in what direction and how far should she now swim to come back to the point where she started?

- Firemen are shooting a stream of water at a burning building using a high-pressure hose that shoots out the water with a speed of 25.0 m/s as it leaves the end of the hose. Once it leaves the hose, the water moves in projectile motion. The firemen adjust the angle of elevation θ of the hose until the water takes 3.0 s to reach a building 45.0 m away. You can ignore air resistance; assume that the end of the hose is at ground level. (a) Find the angle of elevation θ. Hint Answer: θ = 53.1◦(b) Find the speed, v and acceleration a of the water at the highest point in its trajectory.
