Chapter 3, Problem 25P
|| Two archers shoot arrows in the same direction from the same place with the same initial speeds but at different angles. One shoots at 45° above the horizontal, while the other shoots at 60.0°. If the arrow launched at 45° lands 225 m from the archer, how far apart are the two arrows when they land? (You can assume that the arrows start at essentially ground level.)

During new year, a fireworks shell is shot up in the air with an initial velocity of 65m/s at an angle of
70° above the horizontal. The shell is designed to ignite as it reached the highest point above the ground.
a. Find the height above the ground the shell will explode.
b. How long will it take for the shell to reach the highest point and explode?
c. What is the horizontal displacement of the shell when it explodes?
Chinook salmon can jump out of water with a speed of 7.50 m/s. How far horizontally d can a Chinook salmon travel through
