What is the minimum velocity of a projectile ( not a rocket) fired vertically from the Earth so that it escapes from the Earth’s gravitational pull? This is known as its escape velocity. You can neglect air-resistance. HInt: If the velocity of the projectile falls to zero it will be pulled back to Earth. (((include any assumptions)))
A projectile is fired straight upward from the Earth's surface at the South Pole with an...
A projectile is fired straight upward from the Earth's surface at the South Pole with an initial speed equal to one third the escape speed. (The radius of the Earth is 6.38 106 m.) (a) Ignoring air resistance, determine how far from the center of the Earth the projectile travels before stopping momentarily. m (b) What is the altitude of the projectile at this instant? m

A projectile is fired with an initial velocity of 75.0 m/s at an angle of 33.0 degrees above the horizontal. It lands on a hillside 50m above the level from which it was fired. Determine 1) the time of flight of the projectile. 2) the maximum height to which it rises. 3) the horizontal distance from launching to landing points.
