- A baseball with mass of 0.14 kg is batted into the air. It's initial speed is 38.1 m/s directed at an angle 26 degrees above the horizontal.

When she leaves the track, she follows the characteristic path of projectile motion. Ignoring friction and air resistance, find the maximum height H to which she rises above the end of the track.arrow_forwardA space shuttle lands on a distant planet where the gravitational acceleration is 2.0 ( We do not know thelocal units of length and time , but they are consistent throughout the problem). The shuttle coasts along aleve, frictionless plane with a speed of 6.0. It then coasts up a frictionless ramp of height 5.0 and angle 0f 30°.After a brief ballistic flight, it lands a distance S from the ramp. Solve for S in local units of length. Assume theshuttle is small compared to the local length unit and that all atmospheric effects are negligible. Use x and y components.arrow_forward
- As part of an obstacle course, an athlete must kick a soccer ball into a 1 meter wide and 10 meter deep pit such that the ball hits a target at the bottom of the pit. In practice, a dynamics student that is participating in the race kicks the soccer ball such that the soccer ball will bounce off the far wall of the pit 5 meters below the surface and head towards the target. If the velocity of the ball before striking the wall at point at point A is v4 = 2.6i – 10j m, determine the t-component of the ) after striking the wall. The size of the ball and the target ball velocity vector (in are negligible relative to the dimensions of the pit, the gravity acceleration must be considered as g 10 m and the coefficient of restitution at point A is e =0.35. 5 m t 10 m 1m 三arrow_forwardIt's been a great day of new, frictionless snow. Julie starts at the top of the 60° slope with a push-off velocity of 1.7 m/s as shown in the diagram. At the bottom a circular arc carries her through a 90° turn, and then she launches off a 3.0-m-high ramp. How far horizontally is her touchdown point (in m) from the end of the ramp assuming that air resistance is negligible and that the local acceleration due to gravity is 9.80 m/s2?arrow_forwardAlice and Tom dive from an overhang into the lake below. Tom simply drops straight down from the edge, but Alice takes a running start and jumps with an initial horizontal velocity of 25 m/s. Neither person experiences any significant air resistance. Just as they reach the lake below (select all answers that are true) Group of answer choices: None of the above choices are correct. they will both have the same speed. the speed of Alice is larger than that of Tom. Alice reaches the surface of the lake first. They reach the surface of the lake at the same time.

A ski run extends between the peaks, with a total length of 2.91 km and an average slope of 0 = 32° (see the figure). (a) A skier starts from rest at the top of the higher peak. At what speed will he arrive at the top of the lower peak if he coasts without using ski poles? Ignore friction.

The velocity of the ball as it leaves the kicker’s foot is 17 m/s at angle of 47 ◦ above the horizontal. The top of the fence is 6 m high. The ball hits nothing while in flight and air resistance is negligible. The acceleration due to gravity is 9.8 m/s2 (meters/seconds/squared). 1) How far above the top of fence will the ball pass? Consider the diameter of the ball to be negligible. Answer in units of m. 2) What is the vertical component of the velocity when the ball reaches the plane of the fence? Answer in units of m/s.arrow_forward
