- A girl stands on a fishing pier and tosses a pebble into a pond. The pebble is thrown from a height of 2.50 m above the water surface with a velocity of 4.60 m/s at an angle of 60.0° above the horizontal. As the pebble strikes the water surface, it immediately slows down to exactly half the speed it had when it struck the water and maintains that speed while in the water. After the pebble enters the water, it moves in a straight line in the direction of the velocity it had when it struck the water. If the pond is 6.20 m deep, how much time elapses (in s) between when the pebble is thrown and when it strikes the bottom of the pond? 5.195 XYou are hiking in the rocky canyon lands of Utah and eventually realize you are lost. You climb up to stand on one of the tall rocks and shoot a flaming arrow into the air to signal your distress. You shoot the arrow with an initial speed of 30.0 m/s at an angle of 60.0° above the horizontal. The arrow hits the ground 7.50 seconds later. (Neglect air resistance.) (a) What maximum height does the arrow reach above its launch point? (b) Relative to the launch point, where does the projectile land? Give your answer in Cartesian (x,y) coordinates as well as polar (r,0) coordinates.A friend of yours has a one story house with a pool in the backyard. Someone gets the bright idea to jump from the roof of the house into the deep end of the pool. a) If the roof of the house is 16 ft tall and the horizontal distance between the edge of the house and the pool is 10 ft, what would the jumper's minimum velocity need to be to land in the pool? b) Let's assume your friend can jump with an initial horizontal velocity of 15 ft/s. What is their total velocity when they hit the water? (hint: determine both the x and y velocity components, find the resultant)
