- A football kicker can give the ball an initial speed of 25.0 m/s. What are the (a) least and (b) greatest elevation angles at which he can kick the ball to score a field goal from a point 50.0 m in front of goalposts whose horizontal bar is 3.44 m above the ground? When doing this, you may want to research some trig identities to get a formula involving only tangent functions. Also, since there are two values of angle that will work, maybe the quadratic formula is involved.arrow_forward-b+√b²-4ac 2a x = x₂ + V₁xt + ²axt², V₁₁x = V₁x + axt, (v₁₁x)² = (v₁x)² + 2axx, t == у = V₁ + V₁¸yt + ² α¸t², Vf₁y = V₁y+āÿt, (Vƒ‚y)² = (v₁y)² + 2a,ÿarrow_forwardFor women’s volleyball the top of the net is 2.24 m above the floor and the court measures 9.0 m by 9.0 m on each side of the net. Using a jump serve, a player strikes the ball at a point that is 3.0 m above the floor and a horizontal distance of 8.0 m from the net. If the initial velocity of the ball is horizontal, (a) what minimum magnitude must it have if the ball is to clear the net and (b) what maximum magnitude can it have if the ball is to strike the floor inside the back line on the other side of the net?arrow_forward
- A projectile is launched from a 20.0 m high cliff with an initial velocity of 28.0 m/s at an angle of 35.0° elevation. What is the maximum height above the ground (at the bottom of the cliff) the projectile will go?arrow_forwardWhen a long jumper leaps in the air from the ground, he reaches a maximum height of 2.00 meters and travels a horizontal distance of 8.90 meters when he lands on the ground. Ignoring the effects of air resistance, determine the initial speed and the initial launch angle of the athlete.arrow_forwardIn the figure, a ball is launched with a velocity of magnitude 7.00 m/s, at an angle of 45.0° to the horizontal. The launch point is at the base of a ramp of horizontal length di - 6.00m and height d2 = 3.60 m. A plateau is located at the top of the ramp. (a) Does the ball land on the ramp or the plateau? When it lands, what are the (b) magnitude and (c) angle of its displacement from the launch point? Ballarrow_forward
- Physics A baseball player hits a home run over the left-field fence, which is 104 m from home plate. The ball is hit at a point 1.02 m directly above home plate, with an initial velocity directed 31.5° above the horizontal. By what distance does the baseball clear the 3.00 m high fence, if it passes over it 3.10 s after being hit?arrow_forwardA golfer tees off from the top of a rise, giving the golf ball an initial velocity of 43.0 m/s at an angle of 30.0° above the horizontal. The ball strikes the fairway a horizontal distance of 180 m from the tee. Assume the fairway is level. (a) How high is the rise above the fairway? (b) What is the speed of the ball as it strikes the fairway?arrow_forwardA baseball leaves the bat with a speed of 47 m/s and an angle of 45 degrees above the horizontal. A 5.0 m high fence is located at the horizontal distance of 137 m from the point where the ball is struck. Assuming the ball leaves the bat 1.0 m above ground level, by how much does the ball clear the fence?arrow_forward
- A cliff with an angled summit 900 m above the valley floor is a popular jumping off point for base jumpers.One particular base jumper gets a running start and runs off the side of the cliff with a velocity of 4.00 m/sat an angle that is 25.0 degrees below the horizontal, as shown.(a) How long is the base jumper in the air before she opens her parachute 150 m above the valley floor?(b) How far (horizontally) is she away from the cliff?arrow_forwardA projectile is launched with an initial speed of 30 m/s at an angle of 60° above the horizontal.What are the (a) magnitude and (b) angle of its velocity 2.0 s after launch, and (c) is the angle above or below the horizontal? What are the (d) magnitude and (e) angle of its velocity 5.0 s after launch, and (f) is the angle above or below the horizontal?arrow_forwardDuring volcanic eruptions, chunks of solid rock can be blasted out of the volcano; these projectiles are called volcanic bombs. a cross section of Mt. Fuji, in Japan. (a) At what initial speed would a bomb have to be ejected, at angle u0 = 35° to the horizontal, from the vent at A in order to fall at the foot of the volcano at B, at vertical distance h =3.30 km and horizontal distance d = 9.40 km? Ignore, for the moment, the effects of air on the bomb’s travel. (b) What would be the time of flight? (c) Would the effect of the air increase or decrease your answer in (a)?arrow_forward
