Romeo is throwing pebbles gently up to Juliet's window, and he wants the pebbles to hit the window with only a horizontal component of velocity. He is standing at the edge of a rose garden 8.0 m below her window and 8.5 m from the base of the wall (Fig. 3–49). How fast are the pebbles going when they hit her window? 8.0 m FIGURE 3-49 Problem 56. e 8.5 m
(II) A passenger on a boat moving at 1.70 m/s on a still lake walks up a flight of stairs at a speed of 0.60 m/s, Fig. 3–43. The stairs are angled at 45° pointing in the direction of motion as shown. What is the velocity of the passenger rel- ative to the water? 0.60 m/s y 45° V = 1.70 m/s FIGURE 3-43 Problem 42.
2-27. Derive the equation for the range of a projectile fired on level ground, u* sin 20 R where R is the range, 0 is the angle of elevation, and u is the initial velocity. Show that the maximum range is achieved when 0 = 45°.
