Allison is playing catch with her dad. She is 10 m away from him when he throws the football down the field with a velocity of 20 m/s at an angle of 36.9˚ from the horizontal, he releases from 2m above the ground. Determine the following:

a. The horizontal distance traveled by the football;

b. The time that the football is in the air?

c. The minimum average acceleration that Allison needs, assume constant, if she is to catch the football right before it strikes the ground.

What is the velocity of the football when is ½ the way down

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...

Charlie Brown and Lucy are playing catch. Charlie Brown is 15 m directly east of Lucy when she says "go long". Lucy throws the ball towards Charlie Brown (directly east) at an angle of 43 degrees above the horizontal. At exactly the same time, Charlie starts running at a constant speed, Vc, directly east. Charlie runs east for 3.2 seconds and then catches the ball at the same height from which Lucy threw it. (a) At what speed did Lucy...

Romeo is standing 30 m (horizontally) from Juliet’s balcony, and he throws her a bouquet of flowers, tossing them with a speed of 20 m/s at an angle of 53.1° above horizontal. Juliet catches the flowers, inhales their fragran ce, and swoons. (The air, as ever, is unwilling to interfere with young love, so it offers no resistance to the motion of the flowers.) (a) Somewhere along their trajectory between Romeo and Juliet, the flowers will reach their maximum height....

A lion starts at rest 26 m away from a clueless Jordan and charges towards him at a constant velocity of 45km/h. It takes Jordan 1s to react to the lion, turn around and begin running at a velocity of 4.8 m/s towards his vehicle. Jordan's Land Rover is parked 6 m away from him and on the same axis as the lion's charge. Does Jordan get away? Show all work. If Jordan escapes, how far away is the lion...

A 2.0 m tall basketball player is standing a horizontal distance of 7.0 m away from a basketball hoop. The height of the hoop is 3.0 m above the floor. The basketball player throws the ball at an angle of 60 degrees above the horizontal, and from an initial height of 2.0 m above the floor. (Use g= 9.8 m/s2 and neglect air friction effects). Give your answer to 2 significant figures. a) How long does it take for the...

eddy throws a little sand bag so that is lands on the top of a vertical post that is 4m high. The post is 1.3 m away from eddy. He releases the bag from a height of 1.5m above the ground. The initail speed of the bag is v=7.5 m/s, the angle between the velocity and the horizontal is 80 degrees. you can neglect the friction due to the air. How long does the sand bag stay in the air?...

A ball is thrown in the air from player A to player B. When player A throws the ball, player B is 18 m away from player A and runs away from player A with an average velocity of 7 m/s for 1.5 seconds. Unfortunately, player B ends up being 3 m short of where the ball should be caught. A) Draw and label a diagram of the physical situation (include the trajectory). B) Determine the horizontal distance that the...
