A place kicker A executes a "pooch" kick, which is designed to eliminate a potential return by the receiving team. The "pooch" kick features a high trajectory and short range, thereby preventing the deep kick returner B from reaching his maximum speed before encountering coverage. To offset this, player B hesitates for 0.94 sec after the ball is kicked, and then accelerates at a uniform rate, reaching his maximum speed at the instant he catches the ball. Determine the velocity of the football relative to the receiver at the instant the catch is made if the football is caught when it is 5.3 ft above the playing surface. B -x 66 ft/sec 50°

Professional golfers can drive the ball over 200 m. While air resistance is significant, its effects are nearly canceled because lift is gained from backspin on the ball, and so a reasonable description of the ball’s trajectory is obtained if air resistance is neglected. Suppose a golfer hits a ball 200 m on level ground, giving it an initial velocity at an angle of 45o. The duration of the impact of the club and ball has been measured to be 1.00 ms. a) Calculate the velocity of the ball just after it is struck b) What is the 0.0450 kg ball's change in momentum?
In Basketball, an offensive player will shoot the ball in an attempt to score points. A player on defense may attempt to "block" the shot, but goaltending is not allowed. A blocked shot is defined as the defensive player touching the ball when it is moving upwards, while goaltending is defined as the defensive player touching the ball when it is coming back down Suppose an offisive player shoots the ball from an initial position of 2.40 m with an initial (upwards) velocity of 5.94 m/s. Part A If the defensive player touched the ball at a height of 4.00 m and was called for goaltending, at what time after the offensive player shot the ball was the ball touched? t= Or [Π| ΑΣΦ Submit Request Answer ?
During launches, rockets often discard unneeded parts. A certain rocket starts from rest on the launch pad and accelerates upward at a steady 3.40 m/s2 . When it is 245 m above the launch pad, it discards a used fuel canister by simply disconnecting it. Once it is disconnected, the only force acting on the canister is gravity (air resistance can be ignored). How high is the rocket when the canister hits the launch pad, assuming that the rocket does not change its acceleration?
The basketball bounces straight back up off the ground and reaches a maximum height of 4.00m. a)With what speed did the ball leave the ground? (It is perfectly natural for this to be less than the speed it had before it hit the ground.) The basketball hoop is 3.05 m above the ground. The ball will pass the position of the hoop twice –once on the way up and a second time on the way down. b)Determine the ball's velocity (magnitude and direction) as it reaches the height of the hoop on its way down.
a catapult launches a test rocket upward from well giving it a speed of 50 m/s at ground level. the engines then fire so that the rocket accelerated at 5 m/s^2 until it reaches an altitude of 750 m at which point it gos into free fall. what is the maximum altitde of the rocket?
A rocket is fired at a speed of 86.0 m/s from ground level, at an angle of 31.0° above the horizontal. The rocket is fired toward an 7.92- Im high wall, which is located 16.0 m away. The rocket attains its launch speed in a negligibly short period of time, after which its engines shut down and the rocket coasts. By how much does the rocket clear the top of the wall?

Sam fields a baseball hit to him in the left field. He then throws the ball to third to force out the base runner, Mike. Sam releases the ball 1.75 m above the ground with a vertical velocity of 8.5 m/s and a horizontal velocity of 26.5 m/s. At the instant Sam releases the ball, he is 43 m from the third baseman, Charlie, and Mike is 14 m from third base and running at 8.5 m/s toward third. Assume that air resistance does not affect the flight of the ball when answering the following questions. a. How high in the air does the ball go? b. How much time does it take for the ball to reach the third baseman? c. How high is the ball when it reaches the third baseman? d How long does it take Mike to reach third base if he maintains his 8.5 m/s pace?
A punter kicks a ball at an angle of 75 degrees with an initial velocity of 15 m/s. What is the maximum height of the ball? (Assume his foot hits the ball 1 meter above the ground). Include a drawing and all steps. Use the projectile motion equations.
A large boulder is ejected vertically upward from a volcano withan initial speed of 40.0 m/s. Ignore air resistance. When is the displacement of the boulder from its initial position zero?
A projectile is launched on the Earth with a certain initial velocity and moves without air resistance. Another projectile is launched with the same initial velocity on the Moon, where the acceleration due to gravity is one-sixth as large. How does the range of the projectile on the Moon compare with that of the projectile on the Earth? (a) It is one-sixth as large, (b) It is the same, (c) It is V5 limes larger, (d) It is 6 times larger, (e) It is 6limes larger.

An inquisitive physics student and mountain climber climbs a 51.0-m-high cliff that overhangs a calm pool of water. He throws two stones vertically downward, 1.00 s apart, and observes that they cause a single splash. The first stone has an initial speed of 2.06 m/s. (c) What is the speed of each stone at the instant the two stones hit the water?
