A basketball player shoots toward a basket 6.1 m ay and 3.0 m above the floor. If the ball is released 1.8 m above the floor at an angle of 60 above the horizontal, what must the initial speed be if it were to go through the basket?
The maximum horizontal distance a boy can throw a ball is 50 m. Assume he can throw with the same initial speed at all angles. How high does he throw the ball when he throws it straight upward?
In an attempt to escape a desert island, a castaway builds a raft and sets out to sea. The wind shifts a great deal during the day, and she is blown along the following straight lines: 2.50 km and 45.0 north of west, then 4.70 km and 60.0 south of east, then 130 km and 25.0 of west, then 5.10 km due east, then 1.70 km and 5.00 east of north, then 7.20 km and 55.0 south of west, and finally 2.80 km and 10.0 north of east. Use the analytical method to find the resultant vector of all her displacement vectors. What is its magnitude and direction?
Check Your Understanding If the average velocity vector of the drone In the displacement in Example 2.7 is u=(15.0i+31.7j +2.5k)m/s , what is the magnitude of the drone’s velocity vector?
By throwing a ball at an angle of 45, a girl can throw the ball a maximum horizontal distance R on a level field. How far can she throw the tame ball vertically upward? Assume her muscles give the ball the same speed in each case. (Is this assumption valid?)
2. During a baseball practice session, the cutoff man A executes a throw to the third baseman B. If the 90 ft/s initial speed of the baseball is vo = angle O is best if the ball is to arrive at third base at essentially ground level? what В 7' A 150'
1110. In Fig. P-1109, a ball thrown down the incline strikes it at a distance s 254.5 It. If the ball rises to a maximum height h 64.4 ft above the point of release, compute its initial velocity vo and inclination 6. Ans. v. = 80.5 ft per see; 0= 53.1° FIG. P-1109 and P-1110.
40. An eagle is flying horizontally at a speed of 3.00 m/s when the fish in her talons wiggles loose and falls into the lake 5.00 m below. Calculate the velocity of the fish relative to the water when it hits the water.
3. A ball rolls off the edge of a table top Im above the floor and strikes the floor at a point 15. m horizontally from the edge of the table. a) Find the time of flight. b) Find the initial velocity. c) Find the magnitude and direction of the ve- locity of the ball just before it strikes the floor.
Problem 4: A soccer ball is kicked from ground level across a level soccer field with initial velocity vector vo = 8 m/s at 0= 16° above horizontal. The soccer ball feels wind resistance which causes it to slow horizontally with constant acceleration magnitude a, = 0.54 m/s, while leaving its vertical motion unchanged. Assume any other air resistance is negligible. Choose the positive direction ofx from initial point towards final point of flight. Use a Cartesian coordinate system with the origin at the ball's initial position.
A rife is fred horizontally at the center of a target. The bullet has an initial velocity (also known as themuzzle velocity) of 850 m/s and hits the target 1.8 cm below the center. How far (horizontally) away is thetarget from the end of the rife?
A tennis player hits the tennis ball at a distance of 10 m from the net. The ball is hitat a height of 1.2 m above ground so that it starts moving with a velocity of 30 m/s ina horizontal direction (parallel to the ground). The height of the net is 90 cm. What is the angle the tennis player has to hit the ball so it will just clear thenet?
