vo Jewell threw a ball into the air in the direction of a wall that was a distance d = 8.4 meters in front of her. The ball left her hands a distance of h 1.7 meters above the ground. The ball left her hands with an initial speed of 19 meters per second, aimed at a direction of theta = 79 degrees above horizontal. To solve this problem, let g = 9.8 meters per second squared. Ignore air resistance %3D and other sources of friction. How high above the ground (measured in meters) did the ball hit the wall?
Use the worked example above to help you solve this problem. A ball is thrown upward from the top of a building 45 m tall at an angle of 30.0° to the horizontal and with an initial speed of 19.0 m/s. The point of release is h = 49.0 m above the ground. (a) How long does it take for the ball to hit the ground? s(b) Find the ball's speed at impact. m/s(c) Find the horizontal range of the ball. m
(Do not type the unit in your answers) A new circus act is called the Texas Tumblers. Lovely Mary Belle swings from a trapeze, projects herself at an angle of 53°, and is supposed to be caught by Joe Bob, whose hands are 6.1 m above and 8.2 m horizontally from her launch point. You can ignore air resistance. a. What initial speed v, must Mary Belle have just to reach Joe Bob? Ans.: m/s b. What is the X-component of her velocity when Mary Belle reaches Joe Bob? Ans.: m/s c. What is the y-component of her velocity when Mary Belle reaches Joe Bob? Ans.: m/s
