- A baseball with mass of 0.16 kg is batted into the air. Its initial speed is 35.0 m/s, directed at an angle 39 degrees above the horizontal. If the height of the ball when it was struck by the bat is 35 cm, how high off the ground (in m) is the ball when it reaches the highest point in its trajectory?arrow_forwardA projectile is fired with an initial velocity of 1000 m/s at an angle of 370 above the horizontal. If air is neglected, the horizontal component of the projectile's velocity after 20 s is: O 16 m/s O 640 m/s O 800 m/s O 600 m/sarrow_forwardA person on the top of a roof of a building (100 m) drops a ball. After 2s passed, a person who stands at the base of the same building throws a separate ball in the upward direction with a speed of 20 m/s. Assumes the two balls are traveling on the same vertical path. Will the two balls collide with each other? If so, what are their velocities as they collide with each other?arrow_forward
- A projectile is fired from the origin (at y = 0 m) as shown in the figure. The initial velocity components are V0x = 280 m/s and V0y = 44 m/s. The projectile reaches maximum height at point P, then it falls and strikes the ground at point Q. In the figure, the y-component of the acceleration of the shell at point P is closest to: +5 m/s2 -5 m/s2 +10 m/s2 -10 m/s2 zeroarrow_forwardThey came between two buildings that are separated horizontally by a distance of 3.6m and a drop of 2.8m. To cross safely, Jerry has to jump in the horizontal direction with a minimum speed ?0. (a) Calculate the minimum speed ?0 Jerry needs to cross safely. Tom jumps with a speed of 4.8 m/s at an angle of 45⁰ (wow!!! Looks like Tom knows physics). (b) Where does Tom land? (Please show work) (c) By how much does Tom clear the gap? (d) What is Tom’s velocity (magnitude and direction) on landing.arrow_forwardIf you drop an object from a height of 1.3 m, it will hit the ground in 0.51 s. If you throw a baseball horizontally with an initial speed of 24 m/s from the same height, how long will it take the ball to hit the ground?arrow_forward
- A plane flying horizontally at a speed of 50 m/s and at an elevation of 160 m drops a package, and 2.0 s later it drops a second package. How far apart will the two packages land on the ground if air resistance is negligible?arrow_forwardAn archer shoots an arrow horizontally and his friend drops a marble from the same height when the arrow is released. In the absence of air resistance, which of the following happens? Question 17 options: The arrow hits the ground first. The marble hits the ground first. Both hit the ground at the same time. You cannot tell from the information given.arrow_forwardDuring a recent winter storm, bales of hay had to be dropped from an airplane to a herd of cattle below. Assume the airplane flew horizontally at an altitude of 211 m with a constant velocity of 47.0m / s and dropped one bale of hay every 4.0 seconds. It is reasonable to assume that air resistance will be negligible for this situation. About how far apart from each other will the bales land on the ground?arrow_forward

How high will it strike a wall which is 8 m away?arrow_forwardAn artillery gun is fired so that the shell has a vertical component of velocity of 210 m/s and a horizontal component of 360 m/s. If the target is at the same level as the gun, how long will the shell stay in the air?arrow_forwardA batter hits a fly ball with an initial velocity of 37 m/s at an angle of 32° from the horizontal. How much time does the outfielder have to get to the appropriate position to catch the ball?arrow_forward
