Alexis fires a gun toward a target at the same height. The target is 100 meters away. The horizontal velocity of the bullet is vy = 200 m/s. With the horizontal set at 0° and ignoring air resistance, at what angle must the gun be fired so the bullet hits the target? Hint: first find the flight time from the horizontal motion. The maximum height must be reached at half the flight time.

Consider a projectile launched at a height h feet above the ground and at an angle ? with the horizontal. If the initial velocity is v0 feet per second, the path of the projectile is modeled by the parametric equations x = t(v0 cos(?)) and y = h + (v0 sin ?)t - 16t2.Let h=6, v0=63.25, and ?=0.79. What is the range of the projectile (i.e., how far does it travel? Round your answers to two decimal places).
You are to throw a ball with a speed of 13.4 m/s at a target that is height h = 3.50 m above the level at which you release the ball (see the figure). You want the ball's velocity to be horizontal at the instant it reaches the target. (a) At what angle θ above the horizontal must you throw the ball? (b) What is the horizontal distance from the release point to the target? (c) What is the speed of the ball just as it reaches the target?
Imagine an archer preparing to fire an arrow. The archer aims the arrow directly ahead, that is to say, parallel with the ground. Bows are drawn to the corner of the mouth when fired. Let's say, for this particular archer, that puts the arrow 1.8 m (about 5.5 feet) above the ground. Assume that we have measured the initial speed of arrows fired by this archer with this bow and it is 100 m/s. (Ignore wind resistance) a) At what point during the arrow's flight will it be moving the fastest? (Be careful here, think about it. You don't need to do any calculations to figure this out.) b) How long will it take for the arrow to hit the ground?c) How far will the arrow travel during this time period?
A father demonstrates projectile motion to his children by placing a pea on his fork's handle and rapidly depressing the curved tines, launching the pea to heights above the dining room table. Suppose the pea is launched at 7.59 m/s at an angle of 77.0° above the table. With what speed (in m/s) does the pea strike the ceiling 1.80 m above the table?
A 10-kg ball is launched at ground level with an initial speed v0 = 29 m/s, at an angle θ = 23° with the horizontal. Air resistance is negligible. How far from the launching point does the ball touch the ground again, in m? This distance is called the range of the motion.

The same projectile experiment was conducted as you did in class. A racquet ball rolls down a track, leaves the track at an initial height of 0.961m above floor, with an exit speed Vexit = 1.40m/s at an angle exit = 7.46°. The landing spot was repeatedly measured for ten times, and the racquet ball's horizontal range data is provided below.
