A fastball pitcher can throw a baseball at a speed of 40 m/s (90 mi/b). (a) Assuming the pitcher can release the ball 16.7 m from home plate so the ball is moving horizontally, how long does it take the ball to reach bone plate? (b) How far does the ball drop between the pitcher’s hand and home plate?
a cannonball shot from a buried Cannon is fired at an angle of 37 degrees above a level field. The initial velocity has a magnitude of 50 m/s. In the questions that follow, you may neglect air resistance and assume that gravity equals 10 meters per second squared.

Consider a baseball thrown at ?0 = 17 m/s from an initial height of 12 m above the ground and directed with an angle ? = 72° above the horizontal. a. Sketch a picture of the ball’s trajectory. b. What are the x- and y-components of the initial velocity? c. What is the maximum height above the ground that the baseball reaches? d. What is the horizontal distance that the baseball travels?
You fire a ball with an initial speed V0 at an angle (ϕ) above the surface of an incline, which is itself inclined at an angle (θ) above the horizontal (Figure below). a. Find the distance, measured along the incline, from the launch point to the point when the ball strikes the incline. b. What angle ϕ gives the maximum range, measured along the incline? Ignore air resistance. c. Since there's no air resistance, this is a problem in projectile motion. The goal is to find the point where the ball's parabolic trajectory intersects the incline. It is best to choose the x-axis to be horizontal and direct to the right, the y-axis to be vertical and direct to the up, and the origin to be at the point where the ball is fired. In the projectile equations, the launch angle α0 is measured from the horizontal. What is this angle in terms of (θ) and (ϕ)?
