The English perfected the longbow as a weapon after the Medieval period. In the hands of a skilled archer, the longbow was reputed to be accurate at ranges to 100 m or more. If the maximum altitude of an arrow is less than h = 10 m while traveling to a target 100 m away from the archer, and neglecting air resistance, estimate the speed and angle at which the arrow must leave the bow. Plot the required release speed and angle as a function of height h

(a) A daredevil is attempting to jump his motorcycle over a line of buses parked end to end by driving up a 32° ramp at a speed of 40.0 m/s (144 km/h). How many buses can he clear if the top of the takeoff ramp is at the same height as the bus tops and the buses are 20.0 m long? (b) Discuss what your answer implies about the margin of error in this act—that is, consider how much greater the range is than the horizontal distance he must travel to miss the end of the last bus. (Neglect air resistance.)
For a forensics experiment, a student decides to measure the muzzle velocity of the pellets from his BB gun. She points the gun horizontally. On a vertical wall a distance 47.3 m away from the gun, a target is placed. The shots hit the target a vertical distance 0.10 m below the gun's barrel. What is the initial speed of the pellets? Your Answer: units Answer
Under certain conditions, tsunami waves encountering land will develop into bores. A bore is a surge of water much like what would be expected if a dam failed suddenly and emptied a reservoir into a river bed. In the case of a bore traveling from the ocean into a dry river bed, one study† shows that the velocity V of the tip of the bore is proportional to the square root of its height h. This is expressed in the formula below, where k is a constant. V = kh0.5 A bore travels up a dry river bed. How does the velocity of the tip compare with its initial velocity when its height is reduced to one third of its initial height? (Round your answer to two decimal places.) The velocity changes by a factor of ______. How does the height of the bore compare with its initial height when the velocity of the tip is reduced to one quarter of its initial velocity? (Round your answer to two decimal places.) The height is reduced to ______ of the initial height. If the tip of one bore surging up…

Professional golfers can drive the ball over 200 m. While air resistance is significant, its effects are nearly canceled because lift is gained from backspin on the ball, and so a reasonable description of the ball’s trajectory is obtained if air resistance is neglected. Suppose a golfer hits a ball 200 m on level ground, giving it an initial velocity at an angle of 45o. The duration of the impact of the club and ball has been measured to be 1.00 ms. a) Calculate the velocity of the ball just after it is struck b) What is the 0.0450 kg ball's change in momentum?

The lob in tennis is an effective tactic when your opponent is near the net. It consists of lofting the ball over his head, forcing him to move quickly away from the net (see the drawing). Suppose that you loft the ball with an initial speed of 15.0 m/s at an angle of 50.0° the horizontal. At this instant your opponent is 10.0 m away from the ball. He begins moving away from you 0.45 s later, hoping to reach the ball and hit it back at the moment that it is 2.10 m above its launch point. With what minimum average speed must he move? (Ignore the fact that he can stretch, so that his racket can reach the ball before he does.) 15.0 m/s 2.10 m 50.0 10.0 m Number i Units
