During a recent winter storm, bales of hay had to be dropped from an airplane to ah of cattle below. Assume the airplane flew horizontally at an altitude of 193 m with a constant velocity of 47.0 m/s and dropped one bale of hay every 3.0 seconds. It is reasonable to assume that air resistance will be negligible for this situation. About how far anart from each other will the bales land on the ground?

Olympus Mons on Mars is the largest volcano in the solar system, at a height of 25 km and with a radius of 312 km. If you are standing on the summit, with what Initial velocity would you have to fire a projectile from a cannon horizontally to clear the volcano and land on the surface of Mars? Note that Mars has an acceleration of gravity of 3.7m/s2 .
A .43 kg soccer ball is kicked with an initial speed of 25 m/s at an angle of 42 degrees above the horizontal. Assuming no air resistance and a zero relative projection height, how high in the air did the ball go?
An airplane is flying at a speed of 2.00 × 102 m/s in level flight at an altitude of 8.00 × 102 m. A package is to be dropped from the airplane to land on a target on the ground. Ignore air resistance. (I already understnd how to do part A and B, I need help with part c only, please) (a) At what horizontal distance away from the target should the package be released so that it lands on the target? (b) In what direction relative to the horizontal will the package be traveling when it hits the ground? (c) Where is the plane when the package reaches the target?
If there is a person on a cliff that is 200m above the beach and launches a ball from a cannon at 45 degrees to a person, how far is that person from the base of the cliff? The velocity of the muzzle is 50m/s and friction can be ignored.
Messi is keeping his free-kick skills sharp this quarantine by playing football with his neighbour's monkey.From the roof of his house, which is 7 meters above the ground, he kicks a ball horizontally towards his neighbour'shouse, which is 6 meters away and also has a roof that is 7m above the ground. At the same instance, his neighbour'spet monkey drops off the ledge of his roof to try to catch the ball. Please ignore air resistance, and take g=9.81m/s2 If Messi kicks the ball with the minimum required speed; at what time (in seconds) after the kick is the monkey able to catch the ball?The minimum speed (in m/s) is 5.023.
A baseball, hit 6 feet above the ground, leaves the bat at an angle of 43° and is caught by an outfielder 2 feet above the ground and 122 feet from home plate. Neglecting air resistance, what was the initial speed of the ball?
In a carnival booth, you win a stuffed giraffe if you toss a quarter into a small dish. The dish is on a shelf above the point where the quarter leaves your hand and is a horizontal distance of 2.1 m from this point. If you toss the coin with a velocity of 6.4 m/s at an angle of 60° above the horizontal, the coin lands in the dish. You can ignore air resistance,a) What is the height of the shelf above the point where the quarter leaves your hand? b) What is the vertical component of the velocity of the quarter just before it lands in the dish?
A high-speed dart is shot from top of a building with a speed of 150 m/s horizontally. What is the horizontal component of its velocity after 5.0 s if air resistance is neglected?
Two friends are playing catch. They both are about the same height so the release height of the ball when thrown and the height of the catch are both 1.75 meters above the ground. The friend on the right throws the ball at a speed of 15 m/s at an angle of 33° above the horizontal. Assume you can ignore air resistance for this problem. (1) What are the horizontal and vertical components of the initial velocity of the ball? (2) How far away should the second friend stand to catch the ball (at a height of 1.75 m above the ground)? 1: You'll first need to solve for the time the ball is in the air. 2: If you don't know how to solve for time, then pick a value for the time the ball is in the air and perform your remaining calculations using that value for time
The SB2C Helldiver was a dive-bomber that was used by the United States Navy during World War II. Consider one such aircraft flying with a velocity of 111 m/s at an angle ? below the horizontal. The aircraft releases a bomb when its altitude is 2.15 km above sea level. At the point when the bomb is released, the magnitude of the displacement from the bomb to its target at sea level is 2.53 km. What is the angle ?? (Give your answer in degrees. Consider ? to be a positive value, measured downward from the horizontal axis.) _______° downward from the horizontal.
