robin hood shoots an arrow at a target that is a horizontal distance d = 75m away; the bullseye of the target is at the same height as the release height of the arrow.
at what angle, in degrees above the horizontal, must the arrow be released to hit the bullseye if the arrows initial speed is 35m/s?
At a top of a building, a projectile is launched with an initial velocity of 25.0m/s at an angle of 30° above
the horizontal. It takes the projectile t = 3.96s from launch to hit the ground,
B. What is the velocity of the projectile as it hits the ground? (Magnitude + direction)
An archer wishes to shoot an arrow at a target at eye level a distance of 41.5 m away. If the initial speed imparted to the arrow is 73.2 m/s, what angle should the arrow make with the horizontal as it is being shot?
