A very strong but inept shot putter puts the shot straight up vertically with an initial speed of 10.2 m/s. How long does he have to get out of the way if the shot was released at a height of 2.4 m, and he is 1.5 m tall?

Your nephew wanted to show off how fast he could launch a Hot Rod off the dining table 1.00 m above the floor by thrusting the car forward very fast but was no match against your niece who compensated slight lack of speed by pushing the car straight forward reaching a speed of 4.5 m/s at the edge of the table top when she let go of it. What was the magnitude of the final speed when it hit the floor?arrow_forward
- The smal archerfish Dength 20 to 25 cm) lives in brackish waters of Southeast Asia from India to the Philippines. This aptly named creature captures its prey by shooting a stream of water drops at an insect. either flying or at rest. The bug falls into the water and the fish gobbles it up. The archerfish has high accuracy at distances of 1.2 m to 1.5 m, and it sometimes makes hits at distances up to 3.5 m. A groove in the roof of its mouth, along with a curled tongue, forms a tube that enables the fish to impart high velocity to the water in its mouth when it suddenly closes its gill flaps. Suppose the archerfish shoots at a target that is 2.40 m away, measured along a line at an angle of 30.0° above the horizontal. With what velocity must the water stream be launched if it is not to drop more than 5.00 cm verticaly on its path to the target? 22.65 Your response is within 10% of the correct value.
