Javelin is an Olympic sport where the athlete throws a wood stick a certain horizontal distance, as shown in the image below. Range In this problem we are going to assume no air friction, and assume that the javelin lands at the same height that it is launched from. a) At what angle should a javelinier aim the javelin to hit the largest range (farthest distance) possible? (You can just write down the number.) b) The world's record is held by Jan Zelezny, at 98.48m. Using the angle from part (a), what is the minimum speed at which Zelezny could throw his javelin to reach that distance? 21 tv MacBook Pro G Search or type URL
If the location of the landing of a water bottle rocket could be controlled, what is the physics and mathematics needed to establish control over landing? Give a step by step description.
You throw a ball off a desk with a constant velocity of 5 m/s. If the desk is 2 meters above the ground, a) How far horizontally will the ball go before it hits the ground? b) Find the velocity in vector form the moment right before it hits the ground? What angle does the velocity make with the x-axis?
Please answer it within 30 minutes.I will upvote! Problem: You have the chance to throw a water balloon at a clown in the circus. The clown is mostly protected by a wall, but there is a small hole where his head is. He is standing 10 m away from you. The hole is 3 m above theground. You release the balloon 1.5 m above the ground. If you throw the balloon at an angle of 40° abovethe horizontal, how fast should you throw it in order to hit the small hole?
A small puck is positioned on the top of a spherical surface. The puck is then released and gently nudged. At what polar angle will the puck fly offthe sphere? Hint: use an energy solution and the normal reaction at the point of fly-off. Keep in mind the friction of the sphere when modeling the normal reaction.

6. A projectile is fired with a velocity of 50 meters per second at an angle of 30° with the horizontal. What is the magnitude of the vertical component of the velocity at the time the projectile is fired? (1) 25 m/s (3) 75 m/s (2) 50 m/s (4) 100 m/s Proof: Show calculation. 7. Four cannonballs, each with mass M and initial velocity V are fired from a cannon at different angles relative to the ground.

A ball is thrown with an initial velocity V at an angle 0 above the horizontal. Which of the graphs below best represents the relationship between the ball's horizontal speed as it moves toward its maximum height and time? [Neglect friction]
Please help!! Urgent!! You are playing pool and decide to practice your ability to make trick shots. In this trick shot you are attempting to strike an object ball with the cue ball while the object ball is moving and make the shot. If the object ball is moving directly from you at a speed of 0.10 m/s and you strike the cue ball at 0.50 m/s directly in line with the object ball, then after the cue ball and object ball collide, how fast will they be moving apart relative to one another? Previous answer someone gave me was two answers and I only need one!! Please help!!

people love to play with balls nowadays especially during quarantine as theres not much to do. lets say we have a ball that hits another ball that is at the rest. after they hit and smash each other, the first ball moves 4m/s on the platform and makes an angle of 25 degrees while the other ball has a speed of 3m/s.. FIND a)get the angle b3tween da d1rection of motion of da second one (ball) and the original direction of motion of da first one. b) find da original sp33d of the first one c)let me ask u this question. is the kinetic energy is being conserving?
