- Let us throw a rock an upward angle of 30 degrees (30°) of the horizontal from the edge of our favorite 100 m cliff and with an initial velocity of 8.5 m/s. Again, we will ask, how long before the rock hits the ground?arrow_forwardIf you kick a football, at what angle to the ground should you kick the ball for the maximum range—that is, the greatest distance down the field? At what angle to the ground should you kick the ball for the maximum “hang time”—that is, the maximum time in the air?arrow_forwardDuring the siege of Constantinople that led to its conquest by the Ottomans in 1453, the Hungarian engineer Orban built a set of bombards (primitive cannon) to throw enormous stones at the city to breach its walls. The largest of these could throw a 300 kg stone a distance x = 2 km. Assume that the stone was launched at an angle of 0 = 45 degrees above the horizontal; in the absence of air resistance, this gives the largest range. a) What speed did the stone have to be launched at to achieve this range? b) How long was the ball in the air? c) How fast was the ball traveling at the apex of its flight?arrow_forward

(b) How high is the ball when it hits the wall?arrow_forwardA tennis player serves a tennis ball such that it is moving horizontally when it leaves the racquet. When the ball travels a horizontal distance of 15 m, it has dropped 57 cm from its original height when it left the racquet. What was the initial speed, in m/s, of the tennis ball? (Neglect air resistance.)arrow_forwardA stone is projected vertically upwards from the ground and is observed to pass a point situated at a height H above ground level at 4s and again at 5s after projection.Assuming that air resistance is negligible, determine : (i) the velocity of projection of the stone (ii) the height H (iii) the velocity of the stone when at height H (Take g= 10m/s²)arrow_forward
