A baseball batter hits a long fly ball, giving it an initial velocity 45.0° above the horizontal. The ball risesto a maximum height of 14.8 m. An outfielder on the opposing team starts running at 7.60 m/s the instantthe ball is hit. Calculate the farthest the fielder can be from where the ball will land so that it is possiblefor him to catch the ball, i.e. distance between fielder’s original position and lading of the ball

An outfielder on the opposing team starts running at 7.60 m/s the instantthe ball is hit. Calculate the farthest the fielder can be from where the ball will land so that it is possiblefor him to catch the ball, i.e. distance between fielder’s original position and lading of the ball. [HINT: Assume that the outfielder catches the ball at the same height at which it was hit, and that hebegins running at the same time that it was hit.]

The initial speed of a tennis ball is 57.5 m/s and the launch angle is ?i = 16°. Neglect air resistance.Question 1) What is the maximum height, h, of the tennis ball? in mQuestione 2) What is the range, R, of the tennis ball? in m info given: what angle results in the greatest height=90 For this 90° angle, the horizontal component of velocity is zero, so the initial velocity is completely in the vertical direction, resulting in greatest height Kato tries substituting ty,max for t, 0 for yi, and h for yf, and gets h = vi2 sin2 ?i 2g When ?i = 90°, sin2 ?i is maximum, so h is maximum what angle results in the maximum horizontal range=45° I substituted 2vi sin ?i g into the expression for the horizontal component of velocity, (vi cos ?i)t, and got R = 2vi2 sin ?i cos ?i g when ?i = 45°, 2?i = 90°, and sin 90° = 1, which is its maximum value.
Spitting cobras can defend themselves by squeezingmuscles around their venom glands to squirt venom atan attacker. Suppose a spitting cobra rears up to a height of0.500 m above the ground and launches venom at 3.50 m/s,directed 50.0° above the horizon. Neglecting air resistance,find the horizontal distance traveled by the venom before ithits the ground.
In 2007, Michael Carter (U.S.) set a world record in theshot put with a throw of 24.77 m. What was the initial speedof the shot if he released it at a height of 2.10 m and threw itat an angle of 38.0º above the horizontal? (Although themaximum distance for a projectile on level ground is achievedat 45º when air resistance is neglected, the actual angle toachieve maximum range is smaller; thus, 38º will give alonger range than 45º in the shot put.)
