A golf ball rolls off a horizontal cliff with an initial speed of 15.0 m/s. The ball falls a vertical distance of 16.5 m into a lake below. (a)How much time does the ball spend in the air? (b) What is the speed v of the ball just before it strikes the water?
A rock is thrown off a cliff at an angle of 54° above the horizontal. The cliff is 110 m high. The initial speed of the rock is 20 m/s. (Assume the height of the thrower is negligible.)
You are hiking in the rocky canyon lands of Utah and eventually realize you are
lost. You climb up to stand on one of the tall rocks and shoot a flaming arrow into the air to
signal your distress. You shoot the arrow with an initial speed of 30.0 m/s at an angle of
60.0° above the horizontal. The arrow hits the ground 7.50 seconds later. (Neglect air
resistance.)
(a) What maximum height does the arrow reach above its launch point?
(b) Relative to the launch point, where does the projectile land? Give your answer in
Cartesian (x,y) coordinates as well as polar (r,0) coordinates.
