During a recent winter storm, bales of hay had to be dropped from an airplane to a herd of cattle below. Assume the airplane flew horizontally at an altitude of 172 m with a constant velocity of 58.0 m/s and dropped one bale of hay every 4.0 seconds. It is reasonable to assume that air resistance will be negligible for this situation.

In the blizzard of ’88, a rancher was forced to drop hay bales from an airplane to feed her cattle. The plane flew horizontally at 160 km/hr and dropped the bales from a height of 80 m above the flat range, (a) She wanted the bales of hay to land 30 m behind the cattle so as to not hit them. Where should she push the bales out of the airplane? (b) To not hit the cattle, what is the largest time error she could make while pushing the bales out of the airplane? Ignore air resistance.
Based on a grade 11 physics student, answer the following question: A poké-ball rolls off Ash’s table with a velocity of 1.93 m/s [horizontally]. The tabletop is 76.5 cm above the floor. If air resistance is negligible, determine how long the poké-ball is airborne the horizontal range (distance) the velocity at impact
An airplane is flying at a speed of 2.00 × 102 m/s in level flight at an altitude of 8.00 × 102 m. A package is to be dropped from the airplane to land on a target on the ground. Ignore air resistance. (I already understnd how to do part A and B, I need help with part c only, please) (a) At what horizontal distance away from the target should the package be released so that it lands on the target? (b) In what direction relative to the horizontal will the package be traveling when it hits the ground? (c) Where is the plane when the package reaches the target?
A man stands on the roof of a 15.0-m-tall building and throwsa rock with a speed of 30.0 m/s at an angle of 33.0 above the horizontal.Ignore air resistance. Calculate the horizontal range from the base of the building to the point where the rock strikes the ground.
Two friends are playing catch. They both are about the same height so the release height of the ball when thrown and the height of the catch are both 1.75 meters above the ground. The friend on the right throws the ball at a speed of 15 m/s at an angle of 33° above the horizontal. Assume you can ignore air resistance for this problem. (1) What are the horizontal and vertical components of the initial velocity of the ball? (2) How far away should the second friend stand to catch the ball (at a height of 1.75 m above the ground)? 1: You'll first need to solve for the time the ball is in the air. 2: If you don't know how to solve for time, then pick a value for the time the ball is in the air and perform your remaining calculations using that value for time
Messi is keeping his free-kick skills sharp this quarantine by playing football with his neighbour's monkey.From the roof of his house, which is 7 meters above the ground, he kicks a ball horizontally towards his neighbour'shouse, which is 6 meters away and also has a roof that is 7m above the ground. At the same instance, his neighbour'spet monkey drops off the ledge of his roof to try to catch the ball. Please ignore air resistance, and take g=9.81m/s2 If Messi kicks the ball with the minimum required speed; at what time (in seconds) after the kick is the monkey able to catch the ball?The minimum speed (in m/s) is 5.023.
A .43 kg soccer ball is kicked with an initial speed of 25 m/s at an angle of 42 degrees above the horizontal. Assuming no air resistance and a zero relative projection height, how high in the air did the ball go?
If there is a person on a cliff that is 200m above the beach and launches a ball from a cannon at 45 degrees to a person, how far is that person from the base of the cliff? The velocity of the muzzle is 50m/s and friction can be ignored.
The question answered is not what I submitted. This is what I submitted An inflatable life raft is released from an airplane at 300 m altitude, in level flight, with an air speed of 120 m/s in the horizontal direction. Neglecting air resistance, how long before the raft strikes the water?
A major leaguer hits a baseball so that it leaves the bat at a speed of 30.0 m>s and at an angle of 36.9 above the horizontal. Ignore air resistance. (a) At what two times is the baseball at a height of 10.0 m above the point at which it left the bat? (b) Calculate the horizontal and vertical components of the baseball’s velocity at each of the two times calculated in part (a). (c) What are the magnitude and direction of the baseball’s velocity when it returns to the level at which it left the bat?
An airplane is delivering food to a small island. It flies 100 mm above the ground at a speed of 140 m/sm/s .Where should the parcel be released so it lands on the island? Neglect air resistance.
A golf ball with an initial speed of 60.0 m/s lands exactly 135 m downrange on a level course. (a) Neglecting air friction, what two projection angles would achieve this result? ?1 = ° above the ground (smaller angle) ?2 = ° above the ground (larger angle) (b) What is the maximum height reached by the ball, using the two angles determined in part (a)? using ?1 m using ?2 m
