A rock is thrown at a window that is located 21.0 m above the ground. The rock is thrown at an angle of 42.0° above horizontal. The rock is thrown from a height of 2.50 m above the ground with a speed of 33.0 m/s and experiences no appreciable air resistance. If the rock strikes the window on its upward trajectory, (a) how does it take to strike the window? (b) from what horizontal distance from the window was it released? (c) What is the velocity of the rock (magnitude and direction) when striking the window?

(a) How high above the ground is the highest point that the skateboarder reaches? (b) When the skateboarder reaches the highest point, how far is this point horizontally from the end of the ramp? (a) Number_____ Units_____ (b) Number ____ Units ____
A ball is thrown horizontally from the top of a building 74 m high. The ball strikes the ground at a point 90 m horizontally away from and below the point of release. What is the speed of the ball just before it strikes the ground? (note: speed is magnitude of velocity at that point).
A criminal is escaping across a rooftop and runs off the roof horizontally at a speed of 5 m/s, hoping to land on the roof of an adjacent building. Air resistance is negligible. The horizontal distance between the two buildings is D, and the roof of the adjacent building is 3.0 m below the jumping-off point. Find the maximum value for D.
a heavy rock is shot upward from the edge of a vertical cliff. It leaves the edge of the cliff with an initial velocity of 15 m/s directed at 25° from the vertical (65° from horizontal) and experiences no appreciable air resistance as it travels. How high is the cliff?
A daredevil is attempting to jump his motorcycle over a line of buses parked end to end by driving up a 32° ramp, measured from the horizontal, at a speed of 40.0 m/s (144 km/h). The top of the ramp is at the same height as the roofs of the buses and each bus is 20.0 m long. Part (a) How many buses can he clear? Part (b) By how many meters does he clear the last bus?
In the figure, a stone is projected at a cliff of height h with an initial speed of 45.0 m/s directed at an angle 0 = 54.0 ° above the horizontal. The stone strikes at A, 5.64 s after launching. Find (a) the height h of the cliff, (b) the speed of the stone just before impact at A, and (c) the maximum height H reached above the ground.

A golfer hits a shot to the green that is elevated 2.80m above the point where the ball is struck. The ball leaves the club at a speed of 17.6m/s at an angle of 47.0degrees above the horizontal. It rises to its maximum height and then falls down to the green. Ignoring air resistance, find the speed of the ball just before it lands.
An airplane needs to drop a package of supplies to a team in a remote location (landing is not possible). The plane is flying 112.8 m above the ground at a speed of 196.8 m/s. We know that the plane should NOT drop the package when it is passing directly over the location. Instead, the plane needs to drop the supplies BEFORE it reaches the location. How far out (in meters) should the supplies be dropped? (in other words, how far horiszontally will the package go as it falls?) Ignore air resistance.
On a beautiful spring day, Juan is playing a round of golf. He hits the golfball with an initial velocity of 37 m/s at an angle of 27.4°. If it hits the ground 5.8s later, how far does it travel? Ignore air resistance. Answer: m
As shown in the figure, a rock is shot upward from the edge of a vertical cliff. It leaves the edge of the cliff with an initial velocity of v directed at 30° from the horizontal direction and experiences no appreciable air resistance as it travels. The rock lands 2 seconds later. How high is the building?
An arrow was shot from a height of 1.6 5M toward a cliff of height H. it is shot with the velocity of 35 m/s at an angle of 60 degrees above the horizontal. It lands on the top edge of the cliff 3.6 s later. (A) what is the height H of the cliff in M? (B) what is the maximum height reached by the arrow along as trajectory in meters? (C) what is the arrow speed just before hitting a cliff in m/s?
You throw a snowball horizontally from the roof of a building that is 83.0 m above flat ground. The initial speed of the snowball is 17.0 m/s. Assume free fall with up as positive, and use g = 9.80 m/s2. Ignore air resistance. (a) How long does the projectile remain in the air?(b) At what horizontal distance from the firing point does it strike the ground?(c) What is the vertical component of its velocity as it strikes the ground?(d) What is the direction of the ball's velocity (from the x-axis) just before it hits the ground? °
