Aaron Rodgers throws a football at 20.0 m/s to his wide receiver, who runs straight down the field at 9.4 m/s for 20.0 m. If Aaron throws the football when the wide receiver has reached 10.0 m, what angle does Aaron have to launch the ball so the receiver catches it at the 20.0 m mark?
A small plane flies at 200 km/h in still air. If the wind blows directly out of the west at 50 km/h, (a) in what direction must the pilot head her plane to move directly north across land and (b) how long does it take her to reach a point 300 km directly north of her starting point?
In a basketball game, the point guard A intends to throw a pass to the shooting guard B, who is breaking toward the basket at a constant speed of 10 ft/sec. If the shooting guard is to catch the ball at a height of 6.6 ft at C while in full stride to execute a layup, determine the speed vo and launch angle with which the point guard should throw the ball.

In a basketball game, the point guard A intends to throw a pass to the shooting guard B, who is breaking toward the basket at a constant speed of 12 ft/sec.

A baseball batter hits a long fly ball, giving it an initial velocity 45.0° above the horizontal. The ball risesto a maximum height of 14.8 m. An outfielder on the opposing team starts running at 7.60 m/s the instantthe ball is hit. Calculate the farthest the fielder can be from where the ball will land so that it is possiblefor him to catch the ball, i.e. distance between fielder’s original position and lading of the ball
A baseball batter hits a long fly ball, giving it an initial velocity 45.0° above the horizontal. The ball risesto a maximum height of 14.8 m. An outfielder on the opposing team starts running at 7.60 m/s the instantthe ball is hit. Calculate the farthest the fielder can be from where the ball will land so that it is possiblefor him to catch the ball, i.e. distance between fielder’s original position and lading of the ball. [HINT: Assume that the outfielder catches the ball at the same height at which it was hit, and that hebegins running at the same time that it was hit.]
A lizard kicks a ball with an initial velocity of 10 m/s at an angle of 35º with the horizontal. What is the maximum height of the ball?
A batter hits the baseball A with an initial velocity of vo-98 ft/sec directly toward fielder B at an angle of 36° to the horizontal; the initial position of the ball is 4.0 ft above ground level. Fielder Brequires 0.49 sec to judge where the ball should be caught and begins moving to that position with constant speed. Because of great experience, fielder B chooses his running speed so that he arrives at the "catch position" simultaneously with the baseball. The catch position is the field location at which the ball altitude is 8.3 ft. Determine the velocity of the ball relative to the fielder at the instant the catch is made. Answer: VA 242" i+ i) ft/sec
A basketball player is standing on the floor 14.0 m away from the basket. The height of the basket is 3.05 m, and heshoots the ball at 49.0° with the horizontal from a height of 2.00 m. At what speed must the player shoot the ball so thatit goes through the hoop without striking the backboard?
A place kicker must kick a football from a point 36.0m (about 40 yards) from the goal, and half the crowd hopes the ball will clear the crossbar, which is 3.05m high. When kicked, the ball leaves the ground with a speed of 20.0m/s at an angle of 53o to the horizontal. a) By how much does the ball clear or fall short of clearing the crossbar? b) Does the ball approach the crossbar while still rising or while falling?
A placekicker is attempting to make a 64-yard fi eld goal. If the launch angle of the football is 40°, what is the minimum initial speed u which will allow the kicker to succeed?
With an initial velocity of 14m/s, and basketball is shot from an initial height of 2.4 m and initial angle of 38 degrees.thw basket is 3.658 m above ground. If the ball is thrown to the basket under these conditions. a) how far is the basket from the player? b) At what angle did the ball enter the basket?
