In a gym with a ceiling height of 30 feet, a player throws a ball towards a wall that
is 80 feet away. If the ball was released from a height of 5 feet from the floor and
has an initial velocity of 55 ft/s, what is the highest point at which the ball could hit
the wall?

Please answer clearly and readable thank you.

A tank cannon fires from an initial height of 8 feet with an initial velocity of 2500 ft/s. Is it possible to hit an object that is 20,000 ft away horizontally and is also 8 feet vertically? If so what initial angle must the cannon be fired at? If not, then explain why not. (Assume only forces acting on projectile is gravity and use g = 32 ft/s2)

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...

Basic Physics: Projectile Motion. 1. Given that a ball is launched perfectly horizontally from a height of 1.2 meters, and lands on the floor a horizontal distance of 2.6 meters away, find the initial speed (or "muzzle velocity") of the ball in meters per second. Use 9.82 meters per second for "g". 2. A ball is launched at an angle of 56.5 degrees up from the horizontal, with a muzzle velocity of 7 meters per second, from a launch point...
