- A regulation volleyball court measures L = 18.0 meters in length and d = 2.43 meters in height. A volleyball player hits the ball from a height of h = 1.50 m just over the backline, and the initial velocity of the ball creates an angle of q = 30° with the ground. At what initial speed must the ball be struck such that it barely clears the net?arrow_forwardAn active volcano can eject red-hot rocks as it erupts. Suppose a large rock is ejected from a volcano with a speed of 35.0 m/s with an angle 35.0º above the horizontal. The rock strikes the ground at an altitude 50.0 m lower than its starting point. (a) Calculate the time as it strikes the ground? (b) What are the magnitude and direction of the rock’s velocity at the impact of the gropund?

- A rescue plane flying horizontally at 252 km/hr in still air spots a survivor in the ocean 180 m directly belowwhen it releases an emergency kit. Air resistance slows the descent such that the kit falls with a constant verticalacceleration of 6.00 m/s2 downward. Due to the shape of the kit, air resistance in the horizontal direction isnegligible. How far from the survivor does the kit land in the water?arrow_forwardA motorcycle stunt rider rides off the edge of a cliff. Just at the edge his velocity is horizontal, with magnitude 9.0 m/s.

(She has not yet reached the peak of her trajec-tory when she catches the frisbee.) How much horizontaldistance ∆x does she cover between jumping and catchingthe frisbee? For the representation, draw the trajectoriesof the dog and the frisbee, making sure to label all relevantinformation. (Note: feel free include the quantity vi whenstarting out your equation work. But you should find thatyou don’t need to know the value of vi in order to solvethis problem, which is why a value hasn’t been providedfor you.)arrow_forwardA projectile is launched in the horizontal direction.
