It misses his target and buries itself in the ground 40 meters away. Frustrated that they are out about $6 to replace it, the archer figures he might as well calculate the launch velocity of the arrow to take his mind off it. How fast was the arrow going at the moment of launch? A daredevil launches off a ramp trying to jump 10 flaming school buses. They launch with an initial horizontal velocity of 30 m/s. They also have a vertical velocity of 10 meters per second. Will they make the jump if ramp to ramp is 50 meters? 2. It might help to Sketch the diagram of the jump.
