  1. 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)?

  2. 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 flea in the air?

Please tell me the equation and that you used and work out step by step :)))

A 3 kg cannonball is shot straight up from ground level at a velocity of 30 m/s. For the following questions, neglect air resistance and assume acceleration due to gravity is -10 m/s2. (a) Use the 1D equations of motion to find: i. The maximum height the cannonball reaches ii. The time it takes to reach this height iii. The time it takes to fall back to the ground iv. The speed with which it hits the ground

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...
