A shell is shot with an initial velocity of 21 m/s, at an angle of 62 degrees above the horizontal. How long does it take for the shell to get to the top of its trajectory? At the top of the trajectory, the shell explodes into two fragments of equal mass, as shown in the figure below. One fragment, whose speed immediately after the explosion is zero, falls vertically. How far from the gun does this fragment land, assuming that...

Suppose I shot an arrow into the air at some angle from the horizontal with an initial velocity of 66.0 m/s. I want the arrow to hit the ground exactly 360 m from the launch. Calculate the necessary launch angle. Assume that the local acceleration due to gravity is 9.80 m/s/s and that the ground is flat. Neglect air resistance.

An archer shoots an arrow from 4 feet above the ground at an initial velocity of 260 ft/sec at an angle of 30 degrees above the horizontal. Find the maximum height of the arrow. If the archer was shooting at a hog that was 1500 feet away, was the shot too high, too low or on target? (assume the only forces acting on the arrow after it is shot is the force due to gravity -32 ft/sec2

A strong, but inept, shot putter puts a shot straight up with a velocity of 8.0 m/s. If the point of release is 2.1 m above the ground, calculate how long it takes for the shot to hit the ground (you may assume that the shot putter gets out of the way)? A flea can jump to a height of 0.64 m. a) What is its initial speed as it leaves the ground? b) For how much time is the...
