An enemy ship is on the east side of a mountain island, as shown in the figure. The enemy ship has maneuvered to within
d1 = 2077 m
of the
h = 1940 m
high mountain peak and can shoot projectiles with an initial speed of
vi = 244 m/s.
If the western shoreline is horizontally
d2 = 273 m
from the peak, what are the distances from the western shore at which a ship can be safe from the bombardment of the enemy ship?
An archer fish spies a meal of a grasshopper sitting on a long stalk of grass at the edge of the pond in which he is swimming. The fish is to successfully spit at and strike the grasshopper, which is 0.200 m away horizontally and 0.745 m above his mouth.
a. What is the minimum speed at which the archer fish must spit? answer in m/s
b. What angle (in degrees) above the horizontal must he spit? answer in degrees
Use a graphing utility to generate the trajectory of a paper airplane whose equations of motion for t ≥ 0 arex = t − 2 sin t, y = 3 − 2 cos t
Assuming that the plane flies in a room in which the floor is at y = 0, explain why the plane will not crashinto the floor. [For simplicity, ignore the physical size of the plane by treating it as a particle.]
How high must the ceiling be to ensure that the plane does not touch or crash into it?
