A golf ball is struck with a velocity of 80 ft>s as shown.

Determine the speed at which it strikes the ground at B and


the time of flight from A to B.

The basketball passed through the hoop even though


it barely cleared the hands of the player B who
attempted to block it. Neglecting the size of the ball,
determine the magnitude vA of its initial velocity and
the height h of the ball when it passes over player B

The missile at A takes off from rest and rises vertically to


B, where its fuel runs out in 8 s. If the acceleration varies
with time as shown, determine the missile’s height hB and
speed vB. If by internal controls the missile is then
suddenly pointed 45° as shown, and allowed to travel in
free flight, determine the maximum height attained, hC,
and the range R to where it crashes at D.

The position of a particle is defined by r = {4(t - sin t)i + (2t 2 - 3)j} m, where t is in seconds
and the argument for the sine is in radians. Determine the speed of the particle and its normal
and tangential components of acceleration when t = 1

The satellite S travels around the earth in a circular path with a


constant speed of 20 Mm/h. If the acceleration is 2.5.m/s2, determine
the altitude h. Assume the earth’s diameter to be 12 713 km.

A boat is traveling along a circular curve having a radius of 100 ft. If its speed at t = 0 s is
15 ft/s and is increasing at 𝑣̇ = (0.8t) ft/s 2, determine the magnitude of its acceleration at the
instant t = 5 s.

Starting from rest, a bicyclist travels around a horizontal circular path,  =10 m, at a speed of
v = (0.09t2 + 0.1t) m/s where t is in seconds. Determine the magnitudes of his velocity and
acceleration when he has travelled s = 3 m.
