Wiley Coyote has missed the elusive road runner once again. This time, he leaves the edge of a 100-m high cliff with a horizontal velocity of 50.0 m/s. How long will it take Wiley Coyote to reach the bottom of the canyon?

A ball is suspended from a light 1.3 m string . The string makes an angle of 24 degrees with the vertical. The ball is then kicked up and to the right such that the string remains taut the entire time the ball swings upwards. This kick gives the ball an initial velocity of 1.1m/s. What will be the speed, in meters per second, of the ball when it reaches its lowest point (θ = 0)?  What will be the maximum angle, in degrees, the string will make with the vertical?

A small lead ball, attached to a 1.45-m rope, is being whirled in a circle that lies in the vertical plane. The ball is whirled at a constant rate of three revolutions per second and is released on the upward part of the circular motion when it is 1.7 m above the ground. The ball travels straight upward. In the absence of air resistance, to what maximum height above the ground does the ball rise?

A girl is standing at the edge of a cliff 100. m above the ground. She reaches out over the edge of the cliff and throws a rock straight upward with a speed 8.00 m/s. a) How long does it take the rock to hit the ground? b) What is the speed of the rock the instant before it hits the ground?
