A ball is launched eastward from the ground at 30kph at 45 degrees angle from the ground. A shooter will shoot the ball at the peak of its trajectory. The shooter is 50m away from the plane of the ball's trajectory. The launch point of the ball is 20m west from the plane of trajectory's nearest point to the shooter. The gun's muzzle is 1.2m from the ground and the exit velocity of the bullet is 2736kph. Determine the angle the gun should be shot and the time after the ball's launch should the gun's trigger be pulled. Neglect trigger to bullet exit time and air friction.

In a basketball game, the point guard A intends to throw a pass to the shooting guard B, who is breaking toward the basket at a constant speed of 10 ft/sec. If the shooting guard is to catch the ball at a height of 6.6 ft at C while in full stride to execute a layup, determine the speed vo and launch angle with which the point guard should throw the ball. A Answers: Vo = VO 0 = 0 i i 5.5' 43' 10 ft/sec B ft/sec O 25' 6.6'
An archer shoots an arrow at a 87.61 m distant target; the bull's-eye of the target is at same height as the release height of the arrow. At what angle (in degrees) must the arrow be released to hit the bull's-eye if its initial speed is 30.41 m/s?
A girl is trying to hit the target by firing a nerf gun at a distance of 3.5 meters. The target is 1.86 meters above the ground, and the nerf gun is around 1.42 meters high, holding by the girl. For her to hit the target, determine its velocity and angle.
A guy is standing on a relatively flat surface (h = 0 m). A pesky drone is flying overhead at a height of 120 m above the ground and with a velocity of 15 m/s. The guy gets annoyed and fires an arrow with an initial velocity of 100 m/s the instant the horizontal distance between him and the drone is 5 m. At what angle must he fire the arrow in order to hit the drone? Take the guy's height to be 1.8 m. Just to clarify, would shooting an arrow follow the same rules as a regular projectile motion problem? Thanks.
A car full of teenage hooligans drives down a road at 43.0 km/h. They throw an egg out the window at an angle of 26.0° above the horizontal with a speed of 4.00 m/s relative to the car, and from a height of 1.00 m from the ground. The projection of the egg's velocity onto the horizontal makes an angle of 34.0° with the velocity of the car. Ignore wind resistance. 2. (a) How far ahead of the car is the egg 1.00 s later? (b) What is the speed of the egg in flight with respect to the ground? (c) What angle with respect to the horizontal does the egg's velocity make just before the egg lands? What angle does the projection of the egg's velocity make with the road?
A daredevil is shot out of a cannon at 45.0° to the horizontal with an initial speed of 28.0 m/s. A net is positioned a horizontal distance of 48.0 m from the cannon. At what height above the cannon should the net be placed in order to catch the daredevil?

8. A projectile is fired from the ground, reaches a maximum height of 57.1 m and lands a distance of 52.9 m away from the launch point. What was the projectiles launch velocity? 55.0 m/s, 30.8 degrees above horizontal 34.4 m/s, 77.0 degrees above horizontal 33.5 m/s, 38.5 degrees above horizontal 7.8 m/s, 61.6 degrees above horizontal
You are attacking your enemy’s castle and prepare your catapult to launch a large stone at the castle wall. Asyour clan’s engineer, it is up to you to calculate the correct distance from the wall to fire your catapult. Youknow that the projectile will be launched from the catapult 8.2 m above the ground at a velocity of 40 m/s atan angle of 46◦ above the horizontal, and you want to hit the castle wall 3.0 m above the ground, where theprojectile will do the most damage. How far from the wall should your catapult be positioned?
