Spud Webb was, at 5 ft 8 in, one of the shortest basketball players to play in the NBA. But he had an amazing vertical leap; he could jump to a height of 1.1 m off the ground, so he could easily dunk a basketball. For such a leap, what was his “hang time”—the time spent in the air after leaving the ground and before touching down again?

A tennis player serves a tennis ball such that it is moving horizontally when it leaves the racquet. When the ball travels a horizontal distance of 19 m, it has dropped 49 cm from its original height when it left the racquet. What was the initial speed, in m/s, of the tennis ball? (Neglect air resistance.)

If the height of the water slide is h = 3.8m, and the person's initial speed at the top is 0.70m/s , what is the horizontal distance between the base of the slide and the splashdown point of the person?

A block of mass 5.0 kg is acted upon by a single force, producing an acceleration of 2.0 m/s². The force has a value of Show calculation: () 5.0 N. () 10 N. () 2.5 №. 0.5 №. ()

The Hulk, on the 75th story of Stark Tower (225 m off the ground), sees Tony drop his penny. He catches the penny and throws it back to Tony. What is the minimum speed necessary for Hulk's throw in order for the penny to reach Tony? (Note: nobody bothers trying to get Mjolnir back to Thor. He's on his own.)

A ball is thrown eastward into the air from the origin (in the direction of the positive x-axis). The initial velocity is 40 i +64 k, with speed measured in feet per second. The spin of the ball results in a southward acceleration of 4 ft/s2, so the acceleration vector is a = -4 j - 32 k. Where does the ball land? (Round your answers to one decimal place.) X ft from the origin at an angle of 5.7 X from the eastern direction toward the south. 80.4 With what speed does the ball hit the ground?

Mike Powell holds the record for the long jump of 8.95 m, established in 1991. If he left the ground at an angle of 15°, what was his initial speed?

The bat is 3 feet from the ground at the time of impact. The "Green Monster, the left field wall in Fenway Park, is 315 feet from home plate How high will the ball be in feet when it reaches the wall? Round to the nearest hundredth

A ball, rolling with velocity 3 m/s, rolls off a cliff. The cliff ledge is 70 m above the ground below. What is the horizontal distance the ball will travel before hitting the ground. Give the answer in meters.

You are diving board over a swimming pool. You are throwing upward a tennis ball at a speed 3 m/s. On its way back down the tennis ball narrowly misses the diving and hits the water below at 15 m/s. The board is about
