An object is thrown off the top of a building with velocity 28 m/s at an angle of 32° with respect to the horizontal. It takes 6.2 s for the object to land. (a) How high is the building in meters? (b) What is the horizontal distance that the object travels in meters?
A cannon is fired over level ground at an angle of 30 degrees to the horizontal. The initial velocity at this angle is 80 m/s, but this velocity may be separated into a vertical velocity component of 40 m/s and a horizontal velocity component of 69.3 m/s. How far does the cannonball travel horizontally? Your Answer:
A tennis player hits a ball 2.6 m above the ground. The ball leaves his racquet with a speed of 23.5m/s at an angle of 5.7 degrees above the horizontal. The horizontal distance to the net is 7m. and the net is 1.1 high. By how much does the ball clear the net?
You were hiding in a tree 5 m above the ground when you spotted a rabbit on the ground. You took a pebble and shot it with your sling shot. You missed. You estimated you were aiming downward at -50 degrees (i.e. below horizontal) with an initial speed of 5.0 m/s. How far did the pebble land horizontally away from you?
I need help on this problem: A cannon tilted upward at θ= 28 fires a cannonball with a speed of 93 m/s. At that instant, what is the component of the cannonball’s velocity parallel to the ground? Express your answer in meters per second.
