Assignment 9
1. Stephen Curry attempts a 3-point shot from 25 feet with 3 seconds remaining. He
releases the ball at a height of 7 feet. It reaches a maximum height of 15 feet. The ring is
10 feet high. With what initial velocity and at what angle must he release the ball if it
must sink into the ring?
2. A frog is being pursued by its predators. It has to jump from a ledge 10 meters high to
another ledge 12 meters high and 1 meter away horizontally. How fast should the frog
leap from the first ledge and at what angle?
3. A plane has to drop a food package to refugees. It travels at 200 km/hour at a height of
100 meters. How far in terms of ground distance must it be at the moment of dropping so
that the package lands on a spot 10 meters from the recipients?
