William Tell was famous for his prowess in archery. He shot an arrow with a horizontal velocity of 80 m/s, striking an apple atom his son’s head. The arrow and the apple flew off with speed of 15 m/s. If the arrow he used to shoot the apple had a mass of 60 g, calculate the mass of the apple.

use momentum equations pls

William Tell shoots an apple from his son's head. The speed of the 142-g arrow just before it strikes the apple is 23.9 m/s, and at the time of impact it is traveling horizontally. If the arrow sticks in the apple and the arrow/apple combination strikes the ground 8.00 m behind the son's feet, how massive was the apple? Assume the son is 1.85 m tall.

Robin Hood in showing off his archery skills to Friar Tuck was firing arrows towards apples in an apple orchard. If the arrows he shot left his bow with a velocity of 100 m/s and at an angle of 30o above the horizontal. (a)Determine the velocity of the arrows when they reach the maximum height of their flight path. (b) If one of the arrows which Robin Hood fired was aimed towards an apple tree which Newton was under (contemplating...

You are watching an archery tournament when you start wondering how fast an arrow is shot from the bow. Remembering your physics, you ask one of the archers to shoot an arrow parallel to the ground. You find the arrow stuck in the ground 62.0 m away, making a 2.8 ∘ angle with the ground. Ignore all possible aerodynamic effects on the motion of the arrow. Use 9.80 m/s2 for the acceleration due to gravity. A- For how much time...

1) A 85.0 kg football player leaps straight up into the air (with no horizontal velocity) to catch a pass. He catches the 0.430 kg ball precisely at the peak of his jump, when he is 21.2 inches off the ground. He hits the ground 1.11 inches away from where he leapt. If the ball was moving horizontally when it was caught, how fast was the ball travelling? 2)You would like to shoot an orange in a tree with your...

1. Dan is gliding on his skateboard at 2.66 m/s . He suddenly jumps backward off the skateboard, kicking the skateboard forward at 6.52 m/s (as measured by an observer on the ground). Dan's mass is 50.1 kg and the skateboard's mass is 7.09 kg. a) How fast is Dan going as his feet hit the ground? b) If the jump requires 9.20×10−2 ss to complete, what average force did Dan exert on the skateboard? Include the direction of the...
