The Pacific white-sided dolphin (the figure below) can jump straight out of the water to incredible heights near 9.10 m (~30 feet). If adolphin jumps out of the water at a launch angle of 45.0°, (a) what will be its maximum height, and (b) how far will the dolphin jumphorizontally? Assume the dolphin leaves the water at the same speed when it jumps straight upward.Terry Hardie

Step 1:Given:The maximum height above the water surface attained by the dolphin if she jumps…

Answered: The Pacific white-sided dolphin (the…

(a) A daredevil is attempting to jump his motorcycle over a line of buses parked end to end by driving up a 32° ramp at a speed of 40.0 m/s (144 km/h). How many buses can he clear if the top of the takeoff ramp is at the same height as the bus tops and the buses are 20.0 m long? (b) Discuss what your answer implies about the margin of error in this act—that is, consider how much greater the range is than the horizontal distance he must travel to miss the end of the last bus. (Neglect air resistance.)

A student has a cannon that can fire a cannonball at speeds up to 73.0mph. The students wants to determine the maximum range of the cannon and if she could hit a target on the ground as shown. Neglect drag and the initial height of the cannonball. At what angle should the cannonball be fired to achieve maximum range? When fired at this angle, how long will the cannonball remain in the air? What is the cannon's maximum range? m If the student adjusted the angle of the cannon, could the cannon hit a target located 100m from the cannon (measured along the ground)? yes v check answers cannot be determined /positiveskill?skilliD=70&unitID=10&type=assessmentcorrections# Chp

In a science experiment, a test object us launched by accelerating it along a 200-meter incline at 1.25 m/s^2 starting from rest at the bottom point of the incline (Point Q). The incline is measure 35° from the horizontal, and the instant the object leaves the incline, the gears were turned off. Ignoring air resistance. A. Compute the maximum height above the ground that the object reaches. B. What is the maximum range of the object beyond Point Q?
please type the answer if you can
You fire a ball with an initial speed V0 at an angle (ϕ) above the surface of an incline, which is itself inclined at an angle (θ) above the horizontal (Figure below). a. Find the distance, measured along the incline, from the launch point to the point when the ball strikes the incline. b. What angle ϕ gives the maximum range, measured along the incline? Ignore air resistance. c. Since there's no air resistance, this is a problem in projectile motion. The goal is to find the point where the ball's parabolic trajectory intersects the incline. It is best to choose the x-axis to be horizontal and direct to the right, the y-axis to be vertical and direct to the up, and the origin to be at the point where the ball is fired. In the projectile equations, the launch angle α0 is measured from the horizontal. What is this angle in terms of (θ) and (ϕ)?
An object is projected upward with an initial velocity of 4000 m/s at an angle of 45 degrees to the ground.a). what is the maximum height reached by the object? AP b). how long does it take to reach that height? ANc). At what distance from the point of projection will the object fall? EVd). which angle of projection will result in half the range covered in (c)?
