A basketball player is standing on the floor 10.0 m from the basket as in Figure P3.47. The height of the basket is 3.05 m, and he shoots the ball at a 40.0 angle with the horizontal from a height of 2.00 m. (a) What is the acceleration of the basketball at the highest point in its trajectory? (b) At what speed must the player throw the basketball so that the ball goes through the hoop without striking the backboard?
A firework rocket is 85 m above the ground when it explodes. Immediately after the explosion one piece is moving 51 m/s at 23° to the upward vertical direction. A second piece is moving at 38 m/s at 11° below the horizontal direction. What what horizontal distance from the explosion site does each piece land?
A horizontal rifle is fired at a bull's-eye. The muzzle speed of the bullet is 650 m/s. The gun is pointed directly at the center of the bull's-eye, but the bullet strikes the target 0.023 m below the center. What is the horizontal distance between the end of the rifle and the bull's-eye?

Kara is setting up a tee-shirt cannon for a community event. The angle of the cannon can be adjusted, but all projectiles leave the cannon at 25 meters per second. If Kara sets the angle of 20 degrees above the cannon to be above horizontal, what will be the range of the projectiles?
Chapter 4 P35. To start an avalanche on a mountain slope, an artillery shell is fired with an initial velocity of 300 m/s at 55.0° above the horizontal. It explodes on the mountainside 42.0 s after firing. What are the x and y coordinates of the shell where it explodes, relative to its firing point? 000
A mortar shell has an initial velocity v0= 13 m/s, at an angle θ0=60º. At the maximum height of the trajectory the shell explodes into two equal pieces. One piece has a speed immediately after the explosion of zero then falls vertically. How far horizontally does the other fragment land from where it was fired.
