Question
A locust jumps at an angle of 55.0 degrees and lands 0.820 m from where it jumped. What is the maximum height of the locust during it’s jump? Ignore air resistance. If it jumps with the same initial speed at an angle of 45.0 degrees, what is the maximum height? If it jumps with the same initial speed at an angle of 45.0 degrees, what would the range be?

- Students launch a steel ball horizontally from a tabletop. The initial horizontal speed of the ball is v, the tabletop height above the floor is H.The objective is to get steel ball into the coffee can of height h. Calculate the distance D at which the students need to place the can to make a "bulls-eye". v = 6 m/sH = 7 mh = 0.17 m Use g = 10 m/s2, enter two digits after decimal.arrow_forwardBefore jumping from the bridge, Martin throws his water bottle to a friend standing on the bank of the lake.
