“A ball is thrown from the edge of a high cliff. Regardless of the angle at which it is thrown, due to air resistance, the ball will eventually end up moving vertically downward.” Justify this statement.

A football is thrown from a point P. It moves in such a way that its distance from P is always increasing. Find the maximum angle above the horizontal with which the football could have been thrown. You can ignore air resistance.

You are going to throw a ball upward at an angle of 5.80 degrees. If you can throw it with an initial speed of 24.7 m/s, what is its initial vertical velocity component? Your Answer: Answer

A baseball is hit from a height of 4.4 feet above the ground with an initial velocity of 106 feet per second and at an angle of 54°54° above the horizontal.What is the maximum height reached by the baseball? Neglect air resistance.  The fence at the edge of the field is 11.5 feet tall and located 380 feet from home plate. Will the ball pass over the fence? Yes No

-8: 3. A projectile is launched at an angle of 18.0° above the horizontal. What is its initial speed if it hits a target that is located a horizontal distance of 180 m from the launch point and 12.5 m below the launch level? m/s 4. A firefighter located a distance of 24.0 m from a burning building, directs a stream of water at an angle 8 = 26.0° above the horizontal. At what height from the hose nozzle does the water strikes the building if the initial speed of the stream is 44.0 m/s? m Time Left: 1 days 0 hours 32 minutes 5. A basketball player is standing on the floor 14.5 m away from the basket. The height of the basket is 3.10 m, and he shoots the ball at 50.0° with the horizontal from a height of 1.90 m. At what speed must the player shoot the ball so that it goes through the hoop without striking the backboard? m/s 80 6. A projectile is shot from the edge of a cliff 170 m above ground with an initial speed of 70.0 m/s at an angle of 40° below the horizontal. How much time does it…

A car is traveling horizontally at the moment it drives off the top of a 7.19 m tall cliff. The car travels 21.5 m horizontally before striking the ground. Assuming no air-resistance can be ignored, how fast was the car traveling at the moment it left the top of the cliff?

A golfer has a choice of hitting a ball at 51° or at 38°. For maximum distance, which should the golfer choose? Ignore air resistance

True or False, An object launched horizontally off a cliff will have no velocity initially in the y-direction.

A 0.75 kg football is thrown from a height of 1.8 m and has an initial velocity of 16.0 m/s [R 34°U] (34° above the horizontal axis). Assuming that there is air resistance and that the ball lands on the ground, what is the distance the ball will travel horizontally?
