Use g = 10 m/s/s.
You are in a plane that flies horizontally with speed 900 km/h ( 250 m/s) when an engine falls off. Neglecting air drag, assume it takes 25 seconds for the engine to hit the ground.
(a) How high was the plane flying?
(b) What is the horizontal distance that the engine covers before hitting the ground?
(c) If the plane somehow continuous to fly as if nothing had happened, where is the engine relative to the airplane at the moment the engine hits the ground?
The hole on a level, elevated golf green is a horizontal distance of 120 m from the tee and at an elevation of 12.2 m above the tee. A golfer hits a ball at an angle of 9.7° above the horizontal and makes a hole-in-one! What was the initial speed of the ball?

- An airplane is delivering food to a small island. It flies 100 mm above the ground at a speed of 140 m/sm/s .Where should the parcel be released so it lands on the island? Neglect air resistance.arrow_forwardWhile traversing a two-lane highway, the driver observes a girl, 60 m ahead, at the edge of the traveled way of the opposite direction about to cross the road. The lane width of the traveled way is 3.5 m. The vehicle is 2 m wide and 3 m long. The speed of the vehicle is 75 kph and the walking speed of the girl is 1.5 m/s. The vehicle is traveling along the centerline of the traveled way. Asssume that the driver's PR time is 0.8 sec and the coefficient of friction between the vehicle tires and the pavement is 0.4. a. If the roadway is level, will the girl be able to corss the road safely? b. If the roadway has down grade of 0.5%, what is the coefficient of friction between the tires and the pavement required so that the driver won't hit the girl? c. Using the original coefficient of friction between vehicle tires and the pavement, at what roadway grade is the vehicle traversing such that the vehicle was just able to stop without hitting the girl?arrow_forwardTwo friends are playing catch. They both are about the same height so the release height of the ball when thrown and the height of the catch are both 1.75 meters above the ground. The friend on the right throws the ball at a speed of 15 m/s at an angle of 33° above the horizontal. Assume you can ignore air resistance for this problem. (1) What are the horizontal and vertical components of the initial velocity of the ball? (2) How far away should the second friend stand to catch the ball (at a height of 1.75 m above the ground)? 1: You'll first need to solve for the time the ball is in the air. 2: If you don't know how to solve for time, then pick a value for the time the ball is in the air and perform your remaining calculations using that value for timearrow_forward
