1. A player lines up to kick a 40 m goal. In the first attempt, the ball has an initial velocity of 20 m/s at angle of 55.0 degrees. The goal posts are 3 m high. Ônce the ball passes above the field goal post (i.e., after it has travelled 40 m in the horizontal direction), it is deemed successful. (a) Determine if the goal kicker's first attempt is successful. (b) If the kicker changes the angle of kicking to 30 degrees and the initial velocity so that it JUST reaches the goal post. Determine the new initial velocity of ball.
Skeet Shooting is an Olympic sport for rifle marksmen. A skeet is a clay target. A lady marksman goes out to practice and sets her skeet launcher at a position 25 meters north and 40 meters west from where she intends to stand. When she yells “Pull!”, a skeet is launched due East at an angle of 37 degrees above the ground with an initial speed, vo. The marksman only fires due north. Two seconds after she yells “Pull!”, the bullet from her gun hits the clay skeet in the air. At what height did the clay skeet shatter? Neglect air friction effects. {Use sin(37o) = 3/5; cos(37o) = 4/5; and g = 10 m/s2 }
