A quarterback passes the football downfield at 19.0 m/s. It leaves his hand 1.70 m above the ground and is caught by a receiver 36.0 m away at the same height. What is the maximum height of the ball on its way to the receiver?
so y0 = 1.7m x(t) = 36m , i guess i will need angle and t to get the answer, but i have no idea how to find them

- On a distant planet, golf is just as popular as it is on earth. A golfer tees off and drives the ball 2.30 times as far as he would have on earth, given the same initial velocities on both planets. The ball is launched at a speed of 48.4 m/s at an angle of 32.7 ° above the horizontal. When the ball lands, it is at the same level as the tee. On the distant planet, what are (a) the maximum height and (b) the range of the ball?arrow_forwardA military cargo plane is passing over a remote area of wilderness where it cannot make a safe landing. instead of landing the cargo it's dropped.

Vivian is practicing her shooting accuracy with her slingshot by trying to shoot rubber balls into a bucket on the ground. For one particular shot for which the ball lands in the bucket, she fired her slingshot horizontally with an initial speed of 56.0 m/s at a height of 170 cm above the ground. (a) How far away is Vivian standing from the bucket? (b) What are the magnitude and direction of the ball's velocity when it lands in the bucket? Note: Please be mindful of significant figures. Also, you can assume that when the balls land in the bucket, they are on the ground.arrow_forward
- Consider a projectile launched at a height h feet above the ground and at an angle ? with the horizontal. If the initial velocity is v0 feet per second, the path of the projectile is modeled by the parametric equations x = t(v0 cos(?)) and y = h + (v0 sin ?)t - 16t2.Let h=6, v0=63.25, and ?=0.79.

They are testing out their new potato launcher that fires projectiles at a consistent speed. Mark first uses the launcher to launch his potato at an angle of θM = 60◦and then Marvin uses it to launch his identical potato at an angle of θm = 30degrees . The launch speed of the potatoes is v0 = 30 m/s. On mars the acceleration due to gravity is about gm = 3.7 m/s2. (A) Calculate the maximum height each potato achieved. (B) Calculate how far away from the launch each potato landed, assuming they land at the same elevation as from which they were launched.arrow_forwardAs shown, a skier speeds along a flat patch of snow, and then flies horizontally off the edge at 12.0 m/s. He eventually lands on a straight, sloped section that is at an angle of 45° below the horizontal. How long is he in the air?arrow_forward
