A trebuchet was a hurling machine built to attack the walls of a castle under siege. A large stone could be hurled against a wall to break apart the wall. The machine was not placed near the wall because then arrows could reach it from the castle wall. Instead, it was positioned so that the stone hit the wall during the second half of its flight. Suppose a stone is launched with a speed of Vo = 25.0 m/s and at an angle of = 39.0°. What is the speed of the stone if it hits the wall (a) just as it reaches the top of its parabolic path and (b) when it has descended to half that height? (c) As a percentage, how much faster is it moving in part (b) than in part (a)?

1. 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.
A student stands at the edge of a cliff and throws a stone horizontally over the edge with a speed of vo= 13.0 m/s. The cliff is h = 47.0 m above a flat, horizontal beach as shown in the figure.

In a basketball game, a player attempts to apply what he learned in physics under projectile motion. He realizes that from his position, he needs to exert 25 m/s for the ball to hit the ring before the end of the last quarter of the game. At what angle must he position the ball, for him get 3 points for his team to win the match.

On a beautiful spring day, Juan is playing a round of golf. He hits the golfball with an initial velocity of 37 m/s at an angle of 27.4°. If it hits the ground 5.8s later, how far does it travel? Ignore air resistance. Answer: m
A fox fleeing from a hunter encounters a 0.770 m tall fence and attempts to jump it. The fox jumps with an initial velocity of 7.30 m/s at an angle of 45.0°, beginning the jump 1.93 m from the fence. By how much does the fox clear the fence? Treat the fox as a particle.
In 2007, Michael Carter (U.S.) set a world record in the shot put with a throw of 24.77 m. What was the initial speed, in m/s, of the shot if he released it at a height of 2.10 m and threw it at an angle of 38.0° above the horizontal? (Although the maximum distance for a projectile on level ground is achieved at 45° when air resistance is neglected, the actual angle to achieve maximum range is smaller; thus 38° will give a longer range than 45° in the shot put.) v0 =
The same projectile experiment was conducted as you did in class. A racquet ball rolls down a track, leaves the track at an initial height of 0.961m above floor, with an exit speed Vexit = 1.40m/s at an angle exit = 7.46°. The landing spot was repeatedly measured for ten times, and the racquet ball's horizontal range data is provided below.
