During a recent winter storm, bales of hay had to be dropped from an airplane to a herd of cattle below. Assume the airplane flew horizontally at an altitude of 222 m. with a constant velocity of 44.0m/s and dropped one bale of hay every 3.0 seconds. It is reasonable to assume that air resistance will be negligible for this situation. About how far apart from each other will the bales land on the ground? Answer in m (rounded to the nearest whole number)

An object has an initial velocity of 29.0 m/s at 95.0° and an acceleration of 1.90 m/s2 at 200.0°. Assume that all angles are measured with respect to the positive x-axis. (a) Write the initial velocity vector and the acceleration vector in unit vector notation. (b) If the object maintains this acceleration for 12.0 seconds, determine the average velocity vector over the time interval. Express your answer in your unit vector notation.
After discovering that two hikers have been stranded on Devil’s Thumb Pass, the Colorado Search andRescue team sends out a plane with supplies for the hikers. Because the hikers are in an isolated location, theplane has to drop the supplies as it fies overhead (see Figure 1). If the plane is 235 m above the hikers andhas a horizontal speed of 200 km/h, how far away from the hikers should the supplies be dropped if they areto land at the hikers’ location?
A criminal is escaping across a rooftop and runs off the roof horizontally at a speed of 5 m/s, hoping to land on the roof of an adjacent building. Air resistance is negligible. The horizontal distance between the two buildings is D, and the roof of the adjacent building is 3.0 m below the jumping-off point. Find the maximum value for D.
An object is thrown off the top of a building with velocity 36 m/s at an angle of 23° with respect to the horizontal. The object travels a horizontal distance of 260 m before landing on the ground. (a) How high is the building in meters? (b) What is the magnitude of the velocity of the object when it reaches the ground? (c) What is the direction of the object when it reaches the ground, in degrees from the positive x-axis?
A circus cat has been trained to leap off a 12-m-high platform and land on a pillow. The cat leaps off at vo = 3.1 m/s and an angle = 22° (see figure below). (a) Where should the trainer place the pillow so that the cat lands safely? d = X Your response differs from the correct answer by more than 100%. m (b) What is the cat's velocity as she lands in the pillow? (Express your answer in vector form.) Vf= m/s
A physics student stands on a cliff overlooking a lake and decides to throw a tennis ball to her friends in the water below. She throws the tennis ball with a velocity of 25.5 m/s at an angle of 38.5° above the horizontal. When the tennis ball leaves her hand, it is 10.5 m above the water. How far does the tennis ball travel horizontally before it hits the water? Neglect any effects of air resistance when calculating the answer. horizontal distance:
An archer on the roof of a tower shoots an arrow at a bird in flight. The arrow travels at 255 m/s. The bird is directly across from the archer at a distance of 90.0 m. The archer misses. If the tower is 200 m tall and if we assume the cow is at ground level, will his stray arrow hit the cow? (The cow is 145 m away from the tower.)
A medieval city has the shape of a square and is protected by walls with length 500 m and height 15 m. You are the commander of an attacking army and the closest you can get to the wall is 100 m. Your plan is to set fire to the city by catapulting heated rocks over the wall (with an initial speed of 80 m/s). At what range of angles should you tell your men to set the catapult? (Assume the path of the rocks is perpendicular to the wall. Round your answers to one decimal place. Use g = 9.8 m/s2. Enter your answer using interval notation. Enter your answer in terms of degrees without using a degree symbol.)
A car drives horizontally off of a 6.60 m tall cliff. The car lands 7.39 m from the base of the cliff. Assuming air resistance can be ignored, at what speed did the car leave the top of the cliff and at what speed is the car traveling just before striking the ground?
A stone is thrown horizontally with an initial speed of 10 m/s from the edge of a cliff. If the height of the cliff is 100 m, what is the time of flight of the stone if air resistance is negligibly small?
During a recent winter storm, bales of hay had to be dropped from an airplane to a herd of cattle below. Assume the airplane flew horizontally at an altitude of 222 m. with a constant velocity of 44.0m / s and dropped one bale of hay every 3.0 seconds. It is reasonable to assume that air resistance will be negligible for this situation. About how far apart from each other will the bales land on the ground? Answer in m (rounded to the nearest whole number)
An airplane needs to drop a package of supplies to a team in a remote location (landing is not possible). The plane is flying 112.8 m above the ground at a speed of 196.8 m/s. We know that the plane should NOT drop the package when it is passing directly over the location. Instead, the plane needs to drop the supplies BEFORE it reaches the location. How far out (in meters) should the supplies be dropped? (in other words, how far horiszontally will the package go as it falls?) Ignore air resistance.
