3. A cannon on Earth (located at the origin) launches a projectile, of mass m, horizontally at height y = 0 m with speed vo, as shown in the figure below: y (m) ↑ x (m) Fw There is a strong wind that imparts a force with constant magnitude Fw, in the negative x-direction, on the projectile as it is airborne.

An ideal projectile is launched at a 37.3-degree angle from the horizontal with an initial speed of 8.77 m/s. What is the velocity vector of the projectile at the maximum height?
A ball is thrown in the air with an initial velocity of 40.83 m/s at an angle of 68.59° above the horizontal from the top of a 38.10 m building. When the ball hits the ground, it bounces back again at a similar angle but its velocity has been reduced to 88.26% of its final velocity. Determine the maximum height of the ball from its fourth bounce to its fifth bounce assuming the ground 18 a horizontal flat surface.
A projectile is fired with initial speed 150 m/s and an angle of elevation 45° from a position 10 m above ground level. Where does the projectile hit the ground and with what speed? Solution If we place the origin at ground level, then the initial position of the projectile is (0, 10) and so we need to adjust the parametric equations of the trajectory by adding 10 to the expression for y. With v0 = 150 m/s, ? = 45°, and g = 9.8 m/s2, we have x = 150 cos ? 4 t = y = 10 + 150 sin ? 4 t − 1 2 (9.8)t2 = . Impact occurs when y = 0, that is 4.9t2 − 75 2 t − 10 = 0. Solving this quadratic equation (and using only the positive value of t), we get the following. (Round your answer to two decimal places.) t = 75 2 + 11,250 + 196 9.8 ≈ Then x ≈ 75 2 (21.74) ≈ (rounded to the nearest whole number), so the projectile hits the ground about…

Goro Shigeno (Pitcher) and Joe Gibson Jr. (hitter) went head to head in the Major League Baseball (MLB) series. For the last pitch, Gibson hits the baseball with 82 ft/s at angle of 75°. When the ball is directly above Shigeno he begins to run under it. Determine the (a) the total distance that the pitcher runs and (b) the constant speed at which pitcher must run in order to make the catch at the same elevation at which the ball was hit. (Note: the distance between the pitcher and hitter is 70 ft.)
A batter hits a pitched ball when the center of the ball is 1.26 m above the ground.The ball leaves the bat at an angle of 45° with the ground. With that launch, the ball should have a horizontal range (returning to the launch level) of 115 m. (a) Does the ball clear a 8.75-m-high fence that is 105 m horizontally from the launch point? (b) At the fence, what is the distance between the fence top and the ball center? (a) (b) Number Units
A projectile is shot from the edge of a cliff with an initial speed of 150 m/s at an angle of 60.0° above the horizon. The cliff is located 125 m above the ground at the bottom of the cliff, which is a flat, featureless horizontal plane that extends as far as the eye can see.(a) Determine the time taken by the projectile to go from the cliff edge to the ground below the cliff. (b) Determine how far horizontally the projectile traveled from the base of the cliff. (c) Determine the velocity vector of the projectile just before it hits the ground at the bottom of the cliff. (d) Include a complete diagram of the situation.

After starting from the position marked with the “x”, a football receiver B runs the slant-in pattern shown, making a cut at P and thereafter running with a constant speed vB = 6.4 yd/sec in the direction shown. The quarterback releases the ball with a horizontal velocity of 99 ft/sec at the instant the receiver passes point P. Determine the angle at α which the quarterback must throw the ball, and the velocity of the ball relative to the receiver when the ball is caught. Neglect any vertical motion of the ball.
A baseball player hits a home run, and the ball lands in the left-field seats, y = 7.70 m above the point at which it was hit. It lands with a velocity of v = 35.0 m/s at an angle of 28° below the horizontal (see the Figure). The positive directions are upward and to the right in the drawing.

A tennis player serves the ball with an initial speed of 23.6 m/s, from a height of 2.37 m above the court. If the net is at a distance of 12 m and has a height of 0.90 m, determine what is indicated in each section: a) The angle that the throw must have so that the ball can pass over the net. b) The time it takes for the ball to hit the ground, assuming the person on the other side of the net fails to return it. c) If the other person has a height of 1.70 m, and his throw is made at 2.20 m, indicate in what position he must be in order to return the ball.
