It is possible to shoot an arrow at a speed as high as 100 m/s.
(a) If friction can be ignored,how high would an arrow launched at this speed rise if shot straight up?
(b) How long would the arrow be in the air?
A baseball player throws a ball into the air with an initial speed of 27 m/s [up]. Ignore air resistance. (a) How high does the ball go? (b) How long is the ball in the air before she catches it?
do this using GRASS eqaution
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.)
