A boulder rolls over a 50m high cliff.

How fast was the boulder moving if it was found


180m on the ground? At what time did the boulder hit the ground? At what velocity
was it approaching the ground?

A body projected upward from the level ground at an angle of 50° with the horizontal
has an initial velocity of 40 m/s. How long will it be before it hits the ground? How far
from the starting point will it strike?

A body is projected downward at an angle of 30° with the horizontal from the top of a
building 170 m high. Its initial speed is 40 m/s. How long will it take before striking
the ground? How far from the foot of the building will it strike. At what angle with the
horizontal will it strike?

A rocket-propelled car starts from rest at x = 0 and moves in the +x direction with
constant acceleration a = 7 m/s2 for 11 s until the fuel is exhausted. It then continues
with a constant velocity. What is the distance covered by the car at the end of the
15s?

A hose lying on the ground shoots a stream of water upward at an angle of 40° to the
horizontal. The speed of the water is 20 m/s as it leaves the hose. How high up will it
strike a wall which is 8 m away?

A World Series batter hits a home run ball with a velocity of 40 m/s at an angle of 26
above the horizontal. A fielder who can reach 3.0 m above the ground is backed up
against the bleacher wall which is 110 m from home plate. The ball
was 120 cm above the ground when hit. How high above the fielder's glove does the
ball pass?

A stunt flier is moving at 15m/s parallel to the flat ground 100m below. how large
must the distance x from the plane to target be if a sack of flour released from the
plane is to strike the target?
