Question
A projectile is fired from point A at the edge of a cliff, whose initial velocity components are v0x = 60.0m / s and v0y = 175m / s. The projectile rises and then falls into the sea at point P. The projectile flight time is 40.0s and it does not experience appreciable air resistance in flight. a) Make a diagram of the problem, b) Determine how far it falls, c) what is the height of the cliff? and d) at what angle was it shot?

- Professional golfers can drive the ball over 200 m. While air resistance is significant, its effects are nearly canceled because lift is gained from backspin on the ball, and so a reasonable description of the ball’s trajectory is obtained if air resistance is neglected. Suppose a golfer hits a ball 200 m on level ground, giving it an initial velocity at an angle of 45o.
