Problem 36. A ball is kicked towards a wall (on earth) that is a horizontal distance of 30 m from the ball. The wall is 4 m high.The ball is launched with an initial speed of 40 m/s. (Neglect air resistance and assume that the process takes place on earth.)A) What must be the launch angle of the ball if the ball is to barely reach the bottom of the wall?B) What must be the launch angle of the ball if the ball is to barely clear the top of the wall?

(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 person standing at the top of a hemispherical rock of radius R kicks a ball (initially at rest on the top of the rock) to give it horizontal velocity vi as shown in Figure P3.56. (a) What must be its minimum initial speed if the ball is never to hit the rock after it is kicked? (b) With this initial speed, how far from the base of the rock does the ball hit the ground?
A golfer hits his approach shot at an angle of 50.0, giving the ball an initial speed of 38.2 m/s (Fig. P4.60).

A ball is shot from ground level over level ground at a certain initial speed. The figure gives the range R of the ball versus its launch angle 8g. In the following questions, you will be ranking various points on the path. If multiple points rank equally, use the same rank for each, then exclude the intermediate ranking (i.e. if objects A, B, and C must be ranked, and A and B must both be ranked first, the ranking would be A:1, B:1, C:3). If all points rank equally, rank each as '1'. LINK TO TEXT Rank the three lettered points on the plot according to the ball's speed at maximum height, greatest first. R Point a Point b Point c 1. Greatest 2. Second greatest 3. Third greatest
