2. Your friend is stranded on the other side of a canyon, as shown below. He's getting hungryand so you decided to throw him a banana. You throw the banana with an initial velocity of20 m/s at and angle 37° above the horizontal. The canyon is 8 m wide and your friend is on aplateau that is 5 m above your elevation.(a) Find the horizontal (x) and vertical (y) components of the banana's initial velocity.(b) Determine whether or not the banana will reach your friend on his side of the canyon (i.e.,will he get to eat the banana?).

Step 1:Given:The projection speed of the banana: vi=20 m/sThe angle of projection above horizontal:…

After discovering that two hikers have been stranded on Devil’s Thumb Pass, the Colorado Search andRescue team sends out a plane with supplies for the hikers. Because the hikers are in an isolated location, theplane has to drop the supplies as it fies overhead (see Figure 1). If the plane is 235 m above the hikers andhas a horizontal speed of 200 km/h, how far away from the hikers should the supplies be dropped if they areto land at the hikers’ location?

Calvin is standing on the roof of a 6.50 m tall house. His tiger Hobbes is on the ground, some distance away from the house. Calvin is throwing water balloons at Hobbes: Calvin is throwing the water balloons with speed VO at an angle of 0 below the horizontal. On his first try, Calvin hits Hobbes with the water balloon! Hobbes is 3.02 m horizontally from the base of the building and it takes 1.04 s for the balloon to hit him. Coordinate system: positive x points to the right and positive y points up.
