A javelin thrower standing at rest holds the center of the javelin behind her head, then accelerates it through a distance of 70cm as she throws. She releases the javelin 2.0m above the ground traveling at an angle of 30° above the horizontal. In this throw, the javelin hits the ground 62m away. a. What was the acceleration of the javelin during the throw? Assume that it has a constant acceleration. b. What is the speed of the javelin as it leaves the hand of the thrower? c.

A physics professor did daredevil stunts in his spare time. His last stunt was an attempt to jump across a river on a motorcycle (Figure 1). The takeoff ramp was inclined at 53.0°, the river was 40.0 m wide, and the far bank was 15.0 m lower than the top of the ramp. The river itself was 100 m below the ramp. You can ignore air resistance.
