A lowly high diver pushes off horizontally with a speed of 2.63 m/s from the edge of a platform that is 10.0 m above the surface of the water. (a) At what horizontal distance from the edge of the platform is the diver 0.834 s after pushing off? (b) At what vertical distance above the surface of the water is the diver just then? (c) At what horizontal distance from the edge of the platform does the diver strike the water?

A diver springs upward from a board that is 2.3 m above the water. The diver hits the water with a speed of 9.7 m/s at an angle of 81.5 degrees from the surface of the water. What was the diver's initial speed?
Firemen use a high-pressure hose to shoot a stream of water at a burning building. The water has a speed of 25.0 m>s as it leaves the end of the hose and then exhibits projectile motion. The firemen adjust the angle of elevation a of the hose until the water takes 3.00 s to reach a building 45.0 m away. Ignore air resistance; assume that the end of the hose is at ground level. (a) Find a. (b) Find the speed and acceleration of the water at the highest point in its trajectory. (c) How high above the ground does the water strike the building, and how fast is it moving just before it hits the building?
Antlion larvae lie in wait for prey at the bottom of aconical pit about 5.0 cm deep and 3.8 cm in radius. When asmall insect ventures into the pit, it slides to the bottom and isseized by the antlion. If the prey attempts to escape, the antlionrapidly launches grains of sand at the prey, either knockingit down or causing a small avalanche that returns the preyto the bottom of the pit. Suppose an antlion launches grainsof sand at an angle of 72° above the horizon. Find the launchspeed v0 required to hit a target at the top of the pit, 5.0 cmabove and 3.8 cm to the right of the antlion.
An elastic loaded balloon launcher fires balloons at an angle of 38 degrees from the surface of the ground. If the initial velocity is 25.0 m/s, find how far away the balloons are from the launcher when they hit the level ground again.
Sand moves without slipping at 6.0 m/s down a conveyer that is tilted at 150. The sand enters a pipe h = 5z m below the end of the conveyer belt, as shown in the figure below. Assume that the sand is in free fall. The coordinate system is also shown in the figure. (A) What is the acceleration in the horizontal and vertical direction? (B) How long the sand will be in the air (starting from the when it leaves the belt i.e. at origin until it enters the pipe)? (C) What is the horizontal distance “d” between the conveyer belt and the pipe? (D) What is the x-component of sand’s velocity when it enters the pipe? (E) What is the y-component of the sand’s velocity when it enters the pipe? The first 3 sub-parts were already answered for me, I just need parts D and E please.
