Calvin is standing on the roof of a 6.50 m tall house. His tiger Hobbes is on the ground, some distance away from the house. Calvin is throwing water balloons at Hobbes: Calvin is throwing the water balloons with speed VO at an angle of 0 below the horizontal. On his first try, Calvin hits Hobbes with the water balloon! Hobbes is 3.02 m horizontally from the base of the building and it takes 1.04 s for the balloon to hit him. Coordinate system: positive x points to the right and positive y points up.
In a basketball game, two teammates are going to pass a ball to each otherstarting together from center half court. Assuming that we are looking at abasketball court in bird’s eye view, player A is moving “north” towards one endof the court going 9 m/s. Player B, who is now moving 76◦away to the rightpasses the ball to player A with the ball going 14 m/s. What are the magnitudeand direction of the ball’s velocity going towards player A?

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 7.39 m/s at an angle of 85.0° above the table. With what speed (in m/s) does the pea strike the ceiling 1.90 mabove the table?
Kara is setting up a tee-shirt cannon for a community event. The angle of the cannon can be adjusted, but all projectiles leave the cannon at 25 meters per second. If Kara sets the angle of 20 degrees above the cannon to be above horizontal, what will be the range of the projectiles?

Problem 36. A ball is kicked towards a wall (on earth) that is a horizontal distance of 30 m from the ball. The wall is 4 m high. The ball is launched with an initial speed of 40 m/s. (Neglect air resistance and assume that the process takes place on earth.) A) What must be the launch angle of the ball if the ball is to barely reach the bottom of the wall? B) What must be the launch angle of the ball if the ball is to barely clear the top of the wall?
An ice hockey player is moving at 8.00 m/s when he hitsthe puck toward the goal. The speed of the puck relative tothe player is 29.0 m/s.
