1. A projectile is launched at an upward angle 30 to the horizontal with a speed of 30m/s. How
does the horizontal component of its velocity 1.0s after launch compare with its horizontal
component of velocity 2.0s after launch, ignoring air resistance?

2. Two cannonballs, A and B, are fired from the ground with identical initial speeds, but with
A

larger than
B
. (a) Which cannonball reaches a higher elevation? (b) Which stays longer in the
air? (c) Which travels farther?

3. A car driven 225km west and then 78km southwest (45). What is the displacement of the car
from the point of origin (magnitude and direction)? Draw a diagram. (285.53km, 11.14)

4. For the vector given in Fig. 1, determine (a) C B A

+ , (b) C B A

+ , and (c) B A C

.

5. A diver running 2.3m/s dives out horizontally from the edge of a vertical cliff and 3.0s later
reaches the water below. How high was the cliff and how far from its base did the diver hit
the water? (cliff = 44.1m, from base = 6.9m)

6. A ball thrown horizontally at 23.7m/s from the roof of a building lands 31.0m from the base
of the building. How high is the building? (8.28m)

7. A grasshopper hops down a level road. On each hop, the grasshopper launches itself at an
angle 45 and achieves a range 1.0m. What is the average horizontal speed of the grasshopper
as it progresses down the road? Assume that the time spend on the ground between hops is
negligible. (2.21m/s)

8. The pilot of an airplane traveling 170km/h wants to drop supplies to flood victims isolated on
a patch of land 150m below. The supplies should be dropped how many seconds before the
plane is directly overhead? (5.53s)

9. A ball is thrown horizontally from the top of a cliff with initial speed V
0
. At any moment, its
direction of motion makes an angle

to the horizontal. Derive a formula for as a function of
time, t, as the ball follows a projectile`s path. (

10. A projectile is fired with an initial speed of 46.6m/s at an angle of 42.2 above the horizontal
on a long flat firing range. Determine (a) the maximum height reached by the projectile, (b)
the total time in the air, (c) the total horizontal distance covered, and (d) the velocity of the
projectile1.50s after firing.
((a) 49.99m, (b) 6.39s, (c) 220.59m, (d) 38.30m/s, 25.68 above the horizontal)
