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 0.435 m above his mouth. What angle (in degrees) above the horizontal must he spit? Assume vfy = 0.

A car full of teenage hooligans drives down a road at 43.0 km/h. They throw an egg out thewindow at an angle of 26.0° above the horizontal with a speed of 4.00 m/s relative to the car,and from a height of 1.00 m from the ground.

While a helicopter hovers 1000 ft above the water, its pilot spies a man in a lifeboat through an angle of depression of 28°. Along a straight line, a rescue boat can also be seen through an angle of depression of 14°. How far is the rescue boat from the lifeboat? 28
A science student is riding on a flatcar of a train travel- ing along a straight horizontal track at a constant speed of 10.0 m/s. The student throws a ball into the air along a path that he judges to make an initial angle of 60.0° with the horizontal and to be in line with the track. The student’s professor, who is standing on the ground nearby, observes the ball to rise vertically. How high does she see the ball rise?
As a ship is approaching the dock at 45.0 cm/s, an important piece of landing equipment needs to be thrown to it before it can dock. This equipment is thrown at 15.0 m/s at 60° above the horizontal from the top of a tower at the edge of the water, 8.75 m above the ship's deck. For this equipment to land at the front of the ship, at what distance D from the dock should the ship be when the equipment is thrown? PROVIDE ILLUSTRATIONS.
