Question
After a golf ball is hit it takes off with an initial speed of 24.0 m/s and at an angle of 36.5° with respect to the horizontal. The golf field is flat and horizontal. Neglecting air resistance how far will the golf ball fly?
How high will the golf ball rise?
How much time will the ball spend in the air?
How far would the ball fly if the initial speed was doubled?
How much time would the ball spend in the air in this second case?

- Three balls are launched simultaneously, as in the figure. The red ball is launched at an initial velocity Vodirected at an angle & above the horizontal. The blue ball is launched vertically with a speed of 10.3 m/s, and the yellow ball is launched horizontally with a speed of 5.20 m/s. The blue and red balls reach identical maximum heights and return to the ground at the same time, and the red ball returns to the ground to meet the yellow ball at the same place along the horizontal.

- After discovering that two hikers have been stranded on Devil’s Thumb Pass, the Colorado Search andRescue team sends out a plane with supplies for the hikers. Because the hikers are in an isolated location, theplane has to drop the supplies as it fies overhead (see Figure 1).
