The four cases above show four pucks (viewed from above) sliding to the right on a smooth table. Each puck collides with and sticks to a rod that can move or rotate with negligible friction. In all four cases, the pucks are identical, the rods are identical, the initial rightward velocities of the puck are identical, and the initial velocities of the pucks are perpendicular to the rods' lengths. In Cases A and D, the rod is fixed to the table by a pin with negligible friction, but in Cases B and C, the rod is free to move. In Cases A and C, the puck collides with the center of the rod. In which case is Linear Momentum NOT conserved. Answer two if needed.

I got Part B wrong and wasn't sure where at. Could someone walk me through it?
Water leaves a fireman’s hose (held near the ground) with an initial velocity v0 = 11.5 m/s at an angle θ = 30.5° above horizontal. Assume the water acts as a projectile that moves without air resistance. Use a Cartesian coordinate system with the origin at the hose nozzle position, as shown. 1). Using v0, θ, and g, write an expression for the time, tmax, the water travels to reach its maximum vertical height. 2)
Consider a projectile being launched with an initial speed of 43 m/s at a variety of initial angles. Refer to the figure. What is the range, in meters, of the projectile if it is launched at an angle of θ1 = 79.7°? What is the range, in meters, of the projectile if it is launched at an angle of θ2 = 40.5°? What is the range, in meters, of the projectile if it is launched at an angle of θ3 = 90 − 79.7°, the complement of θ1?
