A soccer player kicks a rock horizontally off a 37 m high cliff into a pool of water. If the player hears the sound of the splash 2.92 s later, what was the initial speed given to the rock (in m/s)? Assume the speed of sound in air is 343 m/s.

B

What If? If the temperature near the cliff suddenly falls to 0°C, reducing the speed of sound to 331 m/s, what would the initial speed of the rock have to be (in m/s) for the soccer player to hear the sound of the splash 2.92 s after kicking the rock?

A rock is launched off a cliff at a speed of 12.1 m/s at an angle of 35.0 degrees above the horizontal. The height of the cliff is 16.1 m. How far horizontally from the edge of the cliff does the rock land (to one decimal place)? In your solution, also sketch the x-t, y-t, vx-t, vy-t, ax-t, and ay-t diagrams.

Jason kicks a ball off of a 15-m-high cliff. The kick is at an angle of 30 degrees above the horizon with a speed of 20 m/s. In this problem you will be ultimately solving for the distance from the cliff that the ball lands. 1. Solve for the time it will take the ball to hit the ground. 2. Solve for the horizontal distance from the cliff that the ball will land. r = r0 + V0t + 1/2at^2

A soccer ball of mass 0.4 kg is moving horizontally with a speed of 20 m/s when it is kicked by a player. The kicking force is so large that the ball flies up at an angle of 30 degrees above the ground. The player however claims (s)he aimed her/his foot at a 40 degree angle above the ground. First briefly but precisely explain how this is possible, based on what you heard in the lecture. Then calculate the average...
