In order to get full credit, you need to show all your work.

A ball is launched from the top of a 60 m high building with an initial speed v0 at an angle 40° above the horizontal (close to the surface of Earth). Air resistance is negligible during the motion of the ball.

  • On the coordinate system shown with origin on the ground, draw the path of the ball, the initial velocity vector, and its vector components. Then find the x and y components of the initial velocity in terms of v0
  • If it takes 5.0 s for the ball to reach the top of its path, with what speed was the ball launched?
  • How long does it take the ball to reach the ground?
  • How far from the base of the building does the ball land?

A man throws a ball straight upward with speed 30 m/s from the top of a building that is 75 m high. Ignore air resistance and choose the vertical y-axis to be positive downward with origin at the point of throw (top of the building). Represent the initial velocity and the acceleration vectors in the reference y-axis above. Find the maximum height the ball reaches with respect to the ground. How long does it take the ball to reach the...

1) Water leaves a fireman’s hose (held near the ground) with an initial velocity v0 = 21.5 m/s at an angle θ = 29° above horizontal. Assume the water acts as a projectile that moves without air resistance. Use a Cartesian coordinate system with the origin at the hose nozzle position. Part (a) Using v0, θ, and g, write an expression for the time, tmax, the water travels to reach its maximum vertical height. Part (b) At what horizontal distance...

A 100.0 g ball is launched from the top of a building. The ball is launched from rest by a constant force that is applied, resulting in the ball going from 0 m/s to 75 m/s over a distance of 60 cm. When the ball flies off the top of the building it has an initial velocity of 120.0 m/s @ 33.0o above the horizontal. Sitting on the ground is a tube, with a diameter slightly larger than the ball....
