Firefighters use a high-pressure hose to shoot a stream of water at a burning building. The water has a speed of 25.0 m/s as it leaves the end of the hose and then exhibits projectile motion. The firefighters adjust the angle of elevation a of the hose until the water takes 3.00 s to reach a building 45.0 m away. Ignore air resistance; assume that the end of the hose is at ground level. (a) Find a. (b) Find the speed and acceleration of the water at the highest point in its trajectory. (c) How high above the ground does the water strike the building, and how fast is it moving just before it hits the building?
When a projectile is fired with a velocity of 815 m/s at angle of 37 degrees above the horizontal, the maximum height reached by the projectile is about?
A hose lying on the ground shoots a stream of water upward at an angle of 40° to the horizontal. The speed of the water is 15 m/s as it leaves the hose. How high will it strike a wall which is 8 m away?
