- You are walking around your neighborhood and you see a child on top of a roof of a building kick a soccer ball. The soccer ball is kicked at 50° from the edge of the building with an initial velocity of 10 m/s and lands 20 meters away from the wall of the building. Which equation will allow you to solve for the amount of time the ball is in the air? Hint: look at your givens in the x-direction. Group of answer choices A. vfx2=v0x2+2axΔx B. vfx=v0x+axt C. Δx =v0x t + ½ axt2arrow_forwardFor a forensics experiment, a student decides to measure the muzzle velocity of the pellets from his BB gun. She points the gun horizontally. On a vertical wall a distance 47.3 m away from the gun, a target is placed. The shots hit the target a vertical distance 0.10 m below the gun's barrel. What is the initial speed of the pellets? Your Answer: units Answerarrow_forwardA person throws a ball with speed 102 m/s at a 45° angle. How many seconds faster would the ball arrive if the person threw the ball at the same speed and the same distance but made the trip in two identical bumps. Assume that there is no loss of speed at the bounce. Hint: Use R = v2/g * sin(2θ) and t=2*vy(sinθ)/g.arrow_forward
- A student stands at the edge of a cliff and throws a stone horizontally over the edge with a speed of 17.0 m/s. The cliff is h = 51.0 m above a flat horizontal beach, as shown in the figure below. How long after being released does the stone strike the beach below the cliff? (s) With what speed and angle of impact does the stone land?

The canon hit the top of a building that is 961 m away from where the canon was launched. What is the height of the building? 238.47 m 419.17 m 101.56 m 538.50 marrow_forwardA plane releases a package from an altitude of 300 meters. At the time of release, both the plane and package are moving at 100 meters per second, directed at an angle of 20 degrees below the horizontal. How long is the package in the air? Find the magnitude and direction of the velocity of the package just before impact? Draw a sketch or diagram of the problem. Thank you for your help.arrow_forward

The hill is inclined at 3.40° to the horizontal. The child starts partway down the hill, 4.00 m away from her dad, who stays at the top. She starts to wobble, so her dad sprints toward her from rest with an acceleration of 3.80 m/s2. How far has the child gone before her parent catches her?arrow_forwardA ball is thrown eastward into the air from the origin (in the direction of the positive x-axis). The initial velocity is 40 i +64 k, with speed measured in feet per second. The spin of the ball results in a southward acceleration of 4 ft/s2, so the acceleration vector is a = -4 j - 32 k. Where does the ball land? (Round your answers to one decimal place.)
