An archer aims at a target that is a horizontal distance 55.0 m away and 5.0 m above the ground. The archer launches her arrow from of height of 1.5 m off the ground, and the arrow hits the target. The arrow is completely horizontal after sticking to the target (i.e., the arrow was traveling horizontally just before hitting the target). What was the initial speed of the arrow, in m/s?

An Olympic diver is on a diving platform 3.50 m above the water. To start her dive, she runs off of the platform with a speed of 1.3 m/s in the horizontal direction. What is the diver's speed, in m/s, just before she enters the water? m/s
A ball is thrown on a roof. The ball is thrown at an angle of 53 degrees above the horizontal and at a speed of 22 m/s. The ball rises to a max height before falling on the roof 4.2 meters above the level from which it was thrown. What is the total amount of time the ball spends in the air in seconds and what is the horizontal distance in meters between the balls launching point and ending point?
A skateboarder shoots off a ramp with a velocity of 7.8m/s, directed at an angle of 59degrees above the horizontal. The end of the ramp is 1.0m above the ground. Let the x-axis be parallel to the ground, the +y direction be vertically upward, and take as the origin the point on the ground directly below the top of the ramp. How high above the ground is the highest point that the skateboarder reaches, and when the skateboarder reaches the highest point how far is the point horizontally from the end of the ramp?
While standing on the roof of a building, a boy throws a tennis ball with an initial speed of 15 m / s at an angle of 35 ° below the horizontal. The ball lands on the ground 2.8 s later. How tall, in meters, is the building?
A rock is launched at ground level with an initial speed of 42 m/s, at an angle of 35° above the horizontal. It hits a target above the ground 2.1 seconds later. what is the horizontal distance, in meters, from where the rock was launched to where it hits the target?
A student standing on a cliff that is a vertical height d = 8.0 m above the level ground throws a stone with velocity v0 = 17 m/s at an angle θ = 27 ° below horizontal. The stone moves without air resistance; use a Cartesian coordinate system with the origin at the stone's initial position. With what speed, vf in meters per second, does the stone strike the ground?
A swimmer jumps off a diving board with a velocity of 2.4 m/s up and 2.5 m/s forward. The swimmer enters the pool 1.8 meters ahead of the diving board (this is the horizontal range). How high above the pool (in meters) is the diving board?
A soccer goal is 2.44 m high. A player kicks the ball from a horizontal distance of 13.4 m from the goal, and the ball hits the crossbar at the top of the goal. The launch angle was 33.9 degrees above horizontal. What was the initial speed of the ball, in m/s?
