The shot put world record for women stands at 22.63 m (Natalya Lisovskaya, 1987). Assuming that the shot is projected from a height of 2.2 m at an angle of 45° and neglecting air resistance, the initial speed of the particle is 14.22 m/s. Use g = 9.81 ms-2 for the gravitational acceleration on the surface of the Earth. Parameters (x(+)), z(+)): Vo x(+) 늘 = 2(+) = 글 gta Vo t + √√2 + Zo 1. Find the maximal height of the shot, using the parameters. Give a general expression (no numbers substituted in yet), then evaluate this expression to 2 digits accuracy. 2. Eliminate time t to find an implicit expression of the form z(x) of the solution curve. Use this expression to again determine the maximal height of the shot. 3. Use conservation of energy to determine the maximal height of the shot. You should find the same answer with all three methods.

The banded archerfish is a species of fish that lives in mangrove estuaries in Asia and Oceania. It has a unique and highly effective hunting strategy: it shoots an incredibly precise stream of water out of its mouth at almost ten meters per second, knocking insects and other small animals into the water from nearby branches! Pom Fbug (t) Ө = Our hero, a hungry archerfish, has spotted a big, delicious bug sitting on a branch a height ħ above the surface of the water. The archerfish can shoot its water jet at a speed of vo. The archerfish wants to knock the bug sideways off of the branch, so it decides to shoot so that its water jet is moving horizontally at the moment when it strikes the bug. The final goal of this problem is to find the horizontal distance, d, from the branch, and the angle above horizontal, 0, at which archerfish should shoot. d (a) What are the position and velocity of the water droplet as a function of time and the position and velocity of the bug as a function of…

A woman stands at the edge of a cliff and throws a stone horizontally over the edge with a speed of v0 = 21.5 m/s. The stone leaves her hand at a height of h = 57.0 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 stone leaves the hand. Write the equations for the position of the stone with time, using the coordinates in the figure. Use the following as necessary: t. Assume that x and y are in meters and t is in seconds.

How would I begin to solve this problem? In Example 2.6, we considered a simple model for a rocket launched from the surface of the Earth. A better expression for a rocket's position measured from the center of the Earth is given by y(t) = (RE3/2 + 3*(g/2)1/2 REt)2/3 where RE is the radius of the Earth (6.38 ✕ 106 m) and g is the constant acceleration of an object in free fall near the Earth's surface (9.81 m/s2). (a) Derive expressions for vy(t) and ay(t). (Use the following as necessary: g, RE, and t. Do not substitute numerical values; use variables only.)

A golfer launches a tee shot down a horizontal fairway and it follows a path given by r(t) = (at, (85-0.1a)t, - 5t² +60t), where t≥0 measures time in seconds and r has units of feet. The y-axis points straight down the fairway and the z-axis points vertically upward. The parameter a is the slice factor that determines how much the shot deviates from a straight path down the fairway. a. With no slice (a = 0), sketch and describe the shot. How far does the ball travel horizontally (the distance between the point the ball leaves the ground and the point where it first strikes the ground)? b.
