- A. A model rocket flies horizontally off the edge of a cliff at a velocity of 50.0 m/s. If the canyon is 100.0 m deep, what is the rockets final velocity? Possible answers: 337m/s 451m/s 225m/s 67m/s B.If a passenger on a moving bus tosses a coin into the air, it will land Possible answers: -In the passengers hand -Behind the passenger -in front of the passenger -directly in front of the passengers handarrow_forwardA board 2.5 m long leans against a vertical wall. It starts to slide down the wall. The instant the bottom end is 2 m from the base of the wall, the top end is moving down the wall at the rate of 2 m/s. At that moment, how fast is the bottom sliding along the horizontal ground. 1.5 m/s 2 m/s 0.5 m/s 2.5 m/sarrow_forwardYou need to get into your fourth-floor apartment, but you have forgotten your key to the main ground floor door of the building. You call up to your lazy roommate to come down and let you in, but he says he will throw the keys down to you instead. The window that he throws the keys out of is 13 meters above the ground, and he chucks them with a speed of 2m/s at an angle of 20 degrees above horizontal. The acceleration due to gravity near the surface of earth is 9.8 m/s?. How far back from the window do you need to stand to catch the keys?arrow_forward
- You are walking around your neighborhood and you see a child on top of a roof of a building kick a soccer ball. The soccer ball is kicked at 35° from the edge of the building with an initial velocity of 17 m/s and lands 55 meters away from the wall. How tall, in meters, is the building that the child is standing on?arrow_forwardYou are walking around your neighborhood and you see a child on top of a roof of a building kick a soccer ball. The soccer ball is kicked at 33° from the edge of the building with an initial velocity of 17 m/s and lands 61 meters away from the wall. How tall, in meters, is the building that the child is standing on? XO Yo 124.1 X What information is given, and what is unknown? What will you need to know to find the height of the building? How can you find the time of flight for the ball? marrow_forwardTobio 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.)arrow_forward
- A boy is playing flying fox over a swimming pool as illustrated in the figure. A cable mounted on the top of a tall tower runs down to the ground with an angle = 26° with respect to the horizontal. The boy at the top of the tower grabs a pulley on the cable and slides down from rest. His initial height was ho 15 m above the water. When he reaches hi above the water, he releases his hands from the pulley and falls into the water. The boy is subject to the regular force of gravity (g-9.80665 m/s2). Ignore friction and air resistance. <=10m (a) Determine the speed of the boy at the moment he releases his hands from the pulley. Answer: 9.90 m/s (b) Determine the speed of the boy at the moment he splashes into the water. Answer: 17 (c) At what angle with respect to the horizontal does the boy enter the water? Answer: 57.85 degreesarrow_forwardA small block has a horizontal velocity of 4.00 m/s as it slides off the edge of a table. The table is a vertical distance of 0.85 m above the floor. If g = 9.80 m/s2, how far does the block travel horizontally while it is in the air?arrow_forwardAn Olympic diver is on a diving platform 4.5 m above the water. To start her dive, she runs off of the platform with a speed of 1.3 m/s in the horizontal direction. Determine the diver's speed just before she enters the water. 4.7 m/s 9.5 m/s 6.4 m/s 0 m/sarrow_forward

The gun is pointed directly at the center of the bull's- eye, but the bullet strikes the target 0.029 m below the center. What is the horizontal distance between the end of the rifle and the bull's-eye?
