Glob the alien is playing basketball. Glob is odd, so he likes doing physics while he plays. Glob throws the ball with an initial speed of 11.0m/s towards the hoop. The ball leaves glob's paws at a height of 1.70m above the floor. The ball travels through the air and hits the backboard at a height of 3.50m. If glob knows the ball's velocity is horizontal at the instant it hits the backboard, help glob figure out the following; a) The angle that glob throws the ball (theta) b) The distance between glob and the backboard (x) c) The speed of glob's ball as it hits the backboard (final velocity) Ꮎ 1.7m x 3.5m

A projectile is fired from the ground, reaches a maximum height of 66.5 m and lands a distance of 37.6 m away from the launch point. What was the projectile s launch velocity? 5.1 m/s, 65.6 degrees above horizontal 54.8 m/s, 32.8 degrees above horizontal 36.5 m/s, 82.0 degrees above horizontal 36.1 m/s, 41.0 degrees above horizontal
A stone is thrown upward from a cliff at an angle of 35 degrees above the horizontal with a speed of 47 m/s. The stone hits the ground 5.0 s later. a) What is the x component of the stones initial velocity? v47.0m/s 35 O51.0m/s 041.0 m/s 38.5 m/s O270 m/s
Your nephew got a Nerf Bazooka gun for Christmas, so you take it outside to play with it (just like my uncles did when I was little). The bazooka is on your shoulder, 1.5 m above the ground. You aim the gun 25° above the horizontal and the big, foam projectile leaves the gun with an initial velocity of 36 m You accidentally aim the bazooka at a tree that is a horizontal distance of 27 m away. How long does it take for the projectile to hit the tree? t = How high (above the ground) in the tree does the projectile get stuck? hfinal = m Imagine you were more clever and aimed into an empty field with no obstructions. You can control how fast the projectile leaves the gun by pumping more times or fewer times (more pumps = faster projectile). What are TWO ways you could increase the amount of time that the projectile is in the air?
A Doctors without Borders Cargo plane drops a large package of relief medical supplies as it is moving with a horizontal velocity vx = 250. m/s at a height above the flat ground of y=693m. What is the y component of the final velocity of the package in m/s just before it hits the ground?
You wake up in a room with no windows. You drop a ball from a height of 1.79 m and it hits the floor 0.242 s after you drop it. This time you suspect you are on a rocket that has just left the surface of the Earth, and is still not too far above the ground. What do you deduce the rockets acceleration to be? 102.6 m/s^2 51.3 m/s^2 70.9 m/s^2 61.1 m/s^2
1e. A student stands at the edge of a cliff and throws a stone horizontally over the edge with a speed of v0 = 18.5 m/s. The cliff is h = 20.0 m above a flat, horizontal beach as shown in the figure. How long after being released does the stone strike the beach below the cliff? (in seconds)
