The diver illustrated in the Figure undergoes both translational and rotational or general motion. The overall translational motion of the diver can be analyzed by observing the trajectory of the diver's center of gravity which can be assumed to undergo a projectile motion. Consider a case in which a diver takes off from a diving board located at a height h, = 10 m above the water level and enters the water at a horizontal distance / = 5 m from the end of the board. If the total time the diver remains in the air is t, = 2.5 s, calculate the speed and angle of takeoff of the diver's center of gravity.

An object rolls off a tabletop with a horizontal velocity v0x = 18 m/s. The table is at a height y0 = 0.75 m, above the floor. Use a coordinate system with its origin on the floor directly beneath the point where the object rolls off the table, its horizontal x-axis lying directly beneath the object’s trajectory, and its vertical y-axis pointing up. What is the magnitude of the velocity (its speed) when it hits the floor?
Danielle launches a ball off of a platform of height h with velocity vo at an angle 0 above the horizontal. A wall with a ball-sized hole a height H above the floor, with H > h, is a horizontal distance L = 24.0 m away from Danielle. The difference in height between H and h is one-twelfth of L, and the square of the magnitude of the velocity, v, is three-halves of the product gL. H 1 H – h = h 3 L Determine the two values of 0 that ensure the ball passes through the hole. Submit the larger angle as 0, and the smaller angle as 02.
A woman stands at the edge of a cliff and throws a pebble horizontally over the edge with a speed of v0 = 20.5 m/s.The pebble leaves her hand at a height of h = 55.0 m above level ground at the bottom of the cliff, as shown in the figure. Note the coordinate system in the figure, where the origin is at the bottom of the cliff, directly below where the pebble leaves the hand. Answer parts a-f.
A squirrel runs along an overhead telephone wire that stretches from the top of one pole to the next. It is initially at position x: = 2.01 m, as measured from the center of the wire segment. It then undergoes a displacement of Ax = -6.// m. What is the ' sauirrel's final position xe?
While sitting in physics class one day, you begin to ponder the workings of the analog clock on the classroom wall. You notice as the hands sweep in a continuous motion that there are exactly t = 55 minutes left in class. Through what angle (in radians) will the second hand turn before the end of class?
During a baseball game, a baseball is struck, at ground level, by a batter. The ball leaves the baseball bat with an initial speed v0=50.7m/s at an angle θ=40.5∘ above the horizontal. Let the origin of the Cartesian coordinate system be the ball's position the instant it leaves the bat. Ignore air resistance throughout this problem. 1)Express the magnitude of the ball’s initial horizontal velocity component, v0,x, in terms of v0 and θ. 2Express the magnitude of the ball’s initial vertical velocity component, v0,y, in terms of v0 and θ. 3)Find the ball’s maximum vertical height, hmaxℎmax, in meters, above the ground. 4)Enter an expression in terms of v0, θ, and g for the time it takes the ball to travel to its maximum vertical height. 5)Calculate the horizontal distance, xmax, in meters, that the ball has traveled when it returns to ground level.
