•• I P A white-crowned sparrow flying horizontally with a speed of 1.80 m/s folds its wings and begins to drop in free fall. How far does the sparrow fall after traveling a horizontal distance of 0.500 m? If the sparrow’s initial speed is increased, does the distance of fall increase, decrease, or stay the same? Graph and solve .
You toss a ball horizontally at 9 m/s about 1.2 m above the ground towards a dog who is sitting 3.5 m away. • What height will the dog’s mouth need to be at to catch the ball (if the dog only jumps vertically)?• How fast (and in what direction) will the ball be traveling when the dog catches it?• Include a sketch of the situation (with a coordinate system).
46. •An object undergoing parabolic motion travels 100 m in the horizontal direction before returning to its initial height. If the object is thrown initially at a 30° angle, determine the x component and the y component of the initial velocity. (Neglect any effects due to air resistance.)
