A 440 g model rocket is on a cart that is rolling to the right at a speed of 2.5 m/s. The rocket engine, when it is fired, exerts a 8.0 N vertical thrust on the rocket. Your goal is to have the rocket pass through a small horizontal hoop that is 20 m above the launch point. At what horizontal distance left of the hoop should you launch?

The surface of a pool table is h=0.710 m from the floor. The winner of a competition wants to know if he has broken the world speed record for the break shot of 32 mph (about 14.3 m/s). A. If the winner’s ball landed d=4.95 m from the table’s edge, calculate the speed of his break shot v0. Assume friction is negligible. B. At what speed v1 did his pool ball hit the ground? Image is attached below. Please show all work.
Tobio serves the ball with an initial velocity of 20.5 m/s at an angle of 18˚ from the horizontal, 1.2 m high from the floor. Assuming there is no air resistance and no spin is added to the ball, a. how long will it take for the ball to be just above the net if Tobio serves 10.2 m away from the net? b. how far above the net will the ball be if the standard height is 2.43 m? c. how far away from the net on the other side will the ball land? Is it still inside the court or is it outside? (Volleyball courts are 9 m wide and 18 m long divided equally by the net, so both teams have 9 x 9 m of space each.)
An aircraft performs a maneuver called an aileron roll. During this maneuver, the plane turns like a screw as it maintains a straight flight path, by using its ailerons to set the wings in circular motion. If it takes the plane 35s to complete the circle and each wing length is 4.6m, what is the acceleration of the wing tip? O A. 0.69 mis? OB.0. 15 m/s? OC14 mis? OD.6.7 mis?
Problem 1 student tries to help some local kids make a tire swing by throwing a rope over a branch, which is difficult because there are two branches (they should pick a different tree). The lower branch is e = 7 m off the ground and upper is d = 1 m above that. The student throws the weighted end of a very light rope with an initial angle of 0 = 70° releasing it underhand at a = 0.5 m firom the ground while standing b = 6 m from the tree. %3D Determine the range of minimum and maximm initial velocities required to get over the lowest limb (B) without hitting the upper branch (C).

Youwant to position a mat that will catch the cannon ball.a. Determine how much time the cannon ball will spend in flight.b. Draw a force diagram for three points during the cannon ball’s flight (1) while itis being shot from the cannon, (2) when it is at its maximum height, and (3) whenit is half-way between the maximum height and the mat.c. Determine the horizontal distance from the end of the barrel where you shouldplace the mat so that it will catch the ball.d. How fast is the cannon ball moving just before it hits the mat?
A fastball pitcher can throw a baseball at a speed of 40 m/s (90 mi/b).

A friend is holding a potato gun at a 40 degree angle from the very bottom. It sends out a potato which travels a horizontal distance of 850m. a. How long does it take the potato to hit the ground? b. Your friend has unfortunately not so much as held the potato gun as wedged it in the ground, supporting it vertically but not horizontally. As a result, the bottom end that they hold doesn't move, but the top of the gun moves backward in a circle due to the torque of the recoil. If the potato gun is 2 meters long, and your friend's face is also about 2 meters above the ground, so that it collides with the potato gun once the gun has become vertical, then how quickly is the gun moving when it hits your friend's face?
