Water leaves a fireman’s hose (held near the ground) with an initial velocity v0 = 23 m/s at an angle θ = 33° above horizontal. Assume the water acts as a projectile that moves without air resistance. Use a Cartesian coordinate system with the origin at the hose nozzle position, as shown. At what horizontal distance d from the building base, where should the fireman place the hose for the water to reach its maximum height as it strikes the building? Express this distance, d, in terms of v0, θ, and g.
For a ballistic pendulum, if the length L = 2.15 meter, angle of deflection from vertical θ = 30.8 degree, the mass of the bullet m = 19 gram, and the mass of the catcher M = 591 gram, the velocity (m/s) of the bullet is:

The experiment done in lab is repeated, using a ball that has unknown mass m. You plot your data in the form of f 2 versus M/L, with f in rev/s, M in kg, and L in m. Your data falls close to a straight line that has slope 6.69 m/(kg · s2). Use g = 9.80 m/s2 and calculate the mass m of the ball.
Two friends are playing billiards at an arcade center. One guy hit the cue ball to strike at another ball where it is initially at rest. After the collision caused by the ball that was at rest, the cue ball moves at 2.50 m/s along a line making an angle e=14.0° with its original direction of motion and the second balI has a speed of 1.50 m/s. Find the answer for Part a,b and c. (Note: Both balls have the same mass.) Part A: Find the angle 0 between the direction of the motion of the second ball and the original direction of motion of the cue ball. Part B: Find the cue ball's original speed? Part C: Figure out whether kinetic energy is conserved?
A block of mass m = 3 kg starts to slide from rest along a frictionless inclined surface thatmakes an angle of φφ = 300with respect to the horizontal surface.At the lowest points of the inclined surface, a projectile is fired at a speed of vv0 = 12 m/s thatmakes an angle θθ0 = 450 with respect to the horizontal. Our aim of this problem is to find thetime when the projectile will hit the block.
I am working on finding the inital velocity of a class II projectile and am having trouble determining the right amount of sig figs. The taken measurements of the initial position of x goes to 4 sig figs, as well as the final position for y. With that being said, I am trying to find the initial velocity of x and y separately through trionometry. For example, if I have an equation for the initial velocity of x with an angle of 40, then Vox=Vocos40 My question is, since the measured value for my angle is two significant figures, is my answer Vox=.76Vo also in two sig figs because it goes by the two significant figures from my measured angle, or should I go to four significant figures to match my measured values for x and y?

There are no numerical values assigned to the variables in this problem. A block of mass m1 is projected with a velocity vi at the top of the wedge. When the block reaches the horizontal surface its velocity vf to the right while the wedge moves with a velocity v2 of to the left. (a). What is the velocity of the once it reaches the horizontal surface? Your answer must be in terms of relevant variables. (b). What is the height h the wedge in terms of the relevant variables?
