In the blizzard of ’88, a rancher was forced to drop hay bales from an airplane to feed her cattle. The plane flew horizontally at 160 km/hr and dropped the bales from a height of 80 m above the flat range, (a) She wanted the bales of hay to land 30 m behind the cattle so as to not hit them. Where should she push the bales out of the airplane? (b) To not hit the cattle, what is the largest time error she could make while pushing the bales out of the airplane? Ignore air resistance.

A basketball player standing under the hoop fires the ball straight up with an initial velocity of v0=4.5 m/s from 2.5 m above the ground. Part a) What is the maximum height, h(in meters), above the launch point the basketball will achieve? Part b) On his first attempt, the ball doesn't make it high enough to reach the hoop.

During the siege of Constantinople that led to its conquest by the Ottomans in 1453, the Hungarian engineer Orban built a set of bombards (primitive cannon) to throw enormous stones at the city to breach its walls. The largest of these could throw a 300 kg stone a distance x = 2 km. Assume that the stone was launched at an angle of 0 = 45 degrees above the horizontal; in the absence of air resistance, this gives the largest range. a) What speed did the stone have to be launched at to achieve this range? b) How long was the ball in the air? c) How fast was the ball traveling at the apex of its flight?
An attacker at the base of a castle wall 3.60 m high throws a rock straight up with speed 7.50 m/s from a height of 1.60 m above the ground. a) what is its speed at the top? If not, what initial speed must it have to reach the top? b) Find the change in speed of a rock thrown straight down from the top of the wall at an initial speed of 7.50 m/s and moving between the same two points. c) Does the change in speed of the downward-moving rock agree with the magnitude of the speed change of the rock moving upward between the same elevations? d) Explain physically why it does or does not agree.
