Chapter 4, Problem 11CQ
II. In FIGURE Q4.11. Yvette and Zack are driving down the freeway side by side with their windows down. Zack wants to toss his physics book out the window and have it land in Yvette’s front seat. Ignoring air resistance, should he direct his throw outward and toward the front of the car (throw I), straight outward (throw 2), or outward and toward the hack of the car (throw 3)? Explain.

Tobio serves the ball with an initial velocity of 20.5 m/s at an angle of 18˚ from the horizontal, 1.2 m high from the floor. Assuming there is no air resistance and no spin is added to the ball,
a. how long will it take for the ball to be just above the net if Tobio serves 10.2 m away from the net?
b. how far above the net will the ball be if the standard height is 2.43 m?
c. how far away from the net on the other side will the ball land? Is it still inside the court or is it outside?
(Volleyball courts are 9 m wide and 18 m long divided equally by the net, so both teams have 9 x 9 m of space each.)

We examine the projectile motion of a disk on an inclined plane that makes an angle o (sin o = 0.1) with the horizontal. The y-axis is oriented along the inclined plane and the x-axis along the plane perpendicular to the y-axis, as shown in the figure. At t = 0, the disk is thrown from the origin of the coordinate system with an initial velocity V that makes the angle 0 = 53° with the x-axis (sin 53° = 0,8, cos 53° = 0,6). The frequency of the spark timer is 10 Hz.

It sends out a potato which travels a horizontal distance of 850m. a. How long does it take the potato to hit the ground? b. Your friend has unfortunately not so much as held the potato gun as wedged it in the ground, supporting it vertically but not horizontally. As a result, the bottom end that they hold doesn't move, but the top of the gun moves backward in a circle due to the torque of the recoil. If the potato gun is 2 meters long, and your friend's face is also about 2 meters above the ground, so that it collides with the potato gun once the gun has become vertical, then how quickly is the gun moving when it hits your friend's face?arrow_forwardYou are walking around your neighborhood and you see a child on top of a roof of a building kick a soccer ball.
