Chapter 3, Problem 58PQ
Peter throws a baseball through a house’s window. He stands 3.4 m from the window. The ball starts in his hand 1.1m above the ground and goes through the window at a point 2.4 m off the ground.
a. Sketch the problem, including an x–y coordinate system with the origin on the ground directly below the initial position of the ball, the y axis pointing upward, and the x axis pointing toward the house.
b. What are the initial and final coordinates of the ball?

- Part C Find the height yi from which the rock was launched. Express your answer in meters to three significant figures. Learning Goal: To practice Problem-Solving Strategy 4.1 for projectile motion problems. A rock thrown with speed 12.0 m/s and launch angle 30.0 ∘ (above the horizontal) travels a horizontal distance of d = 19.0 m before hitting the ground. From what height was the rock thrown? Use the value g = 9.800 m/s2 for the free-fall acceleration. PROBLEM-SOLVING STRATEGY 4.1 Projectile motion problems MODEL: Is it reasonable to ignore air resistance? If so, use the projectile motion model. VISUALIZE: Establish a coordinate system with the x-axis horizontal and the y-axis vertical. Define symbols and identify what the problem is trying to find. For a launch at angle θ, the initial velocity components are vix=v0cosθ and viy=v0sinθ. SOLVE: The acceleration is known: ax=0 and ay=−g.
