In the absence of air resistance, a projectile that lands at the elevation from which it was launched achieves maximum range when launched at a 45angle. Suppose a projectile of mass m is launched with speed v0 into a headwind that exerts a constant, horizontal retarding force Fwind=−Fwindi^. By what percentage is the maximum range of a 0.900 kg ball reduced if Fwind= 0.100 N?

While standing on a frozen lake (µf = 0) you throw a rock with a mass of 2.25 kg at vb = 12.0 m/s. Thedistance between you and the rock when it lands is 15.2 m. If your mass is 32.5 kg and you take the initialheight of the rock to be zero, at what angle did you throw the rock? Also, what is your velocity after throwing the rock?

In the absence of air resistance, a projectile that lands at the elevation from which it was launched achieves maximum range when launched at a 45∘ angle. Suppose a projectile of mass m is launched with speed v0 into a headwind that exerts a constant, horizontal retarding force F⃗ wind =−Fwindi^. By what percentage is the maximum range of a 0.150 kg ball reduced if Fwind = 0.600 N?
Sharon pushes a tall box across the floor. Her arms (and therefore her push force) of F = 400 N make a theta= 30 degree angle with the horizontal. Since the box rests on ball bearings it is essentially frictionless. Sick of her job, Sharon decides to give the box a brief shove lasting only t = 0.2 seconds. Find the velocity (magnitude and direction) of the box at the completion of Sharon's shove, assuming (a) the box's weight is 490 N, and (b) the box's weight is 122.5 N. In both cases, the box starts from rest.
A small rocket of weight 0.3 lbs is launched vertically with thrust 3 lbs from a stand on the ground at time t = 0 seconds. It has a constant thrust for the first second, then no thrust after that. We will assume no air friction and ignore the mass change of the rocket for now. Determine the maximum height that the rocket will reach. feet

Problem begins here: A wooden ball of weight 196 newtons is dropped vertically from a height of 100 meters above the ground. Throughout the fall, drag is present by a factor 4v due to air resistance, where v is the velocity of the ball at timet (in seconds). After how many seconds will the ball impact the ground? Assume that the net force acting on the ball is modeled by m(dv/dt) = mg-kv, where m is the mass of the ball. Also, assume that there is no initial velocity and that the acceleration due to gravity g is 9.8 meters per second squared. Do not round off intermediate steps. Round off the final answer to two decimal places.

A parachutist (mass, m = 85 kg including parachute) has an initial velocity, v0 = 52.8 ms-1, immediately after the parachute opens. The drag force provided the parachute varies as a function of velocity, such that Fd = kv2 where k = 13.7 kg/m. Calculate the time it takes in seconds for the velocity to reach half the initial velocity. What is the maximum speed (terminal velocity) in km/h of the parachutist when the parachute is open?
