A playground is on the flat roof of a city school, hb = 6.40 m above the street below (see figure). The vertical wall of the building is h = 7.70 m high, to form a 1.3-m-high railing around the playground.

C. Calculate the velocity of the shell as it hits the target. Report your answer in magnitude-angle notation.
A projectile is fired from the ground (you can assume the initial height is the same as the ground) in a field so there are no obstacles in its way. It is fired at an angle of 37 degrees with respect to the horizontal and with an initial speed of 36 m/s. Air resistance is negligible in this situation. Call up the positive y direction, and toward the wall the positive x direction. Maximum height the projectile reaches: 23.948m Projectile speed at max height: 28.751m/s Earliest time when the height of the projectile is half of its maximum value: 0.648s The projectile is fired toward a wall that is a horizontal distance 106.6m from where the projectile was fired. What was the height of the projectile when it hit the wall?
A home run is hit in such a way that the baseball just clears a wall 12.0 m high, located 122 m from home plate.
