Question 1:
A Knight of the Round Table fires off a vat of burning pitch from his catapult at 15.2 m/s, at 34 above the horizontal. The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s2.
How long is it in the air?
Part 2:
What is the horizontal component of the velocity?
Part 3:
How far from the catapult does it land?
Question 2:
A long jumper leaves the ground at an angle of 15.8 to the horizontal and at a speed of 10.8 m/s. How far does he jump? The acceleration due to gravity is 9.8 m/s2 .Answer in units of m
Question 3:
To win the game, a place kicker must kick a football from a point 25 m (27.34 yd) from the goal, and the ball must clear the crossbar,
which is 3.05 m high. When kicked, the ball leaves the ground with a speed of 17 m/s at an angle of 48.5 from the horizontal. The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s2.
By how much vertical distance does the ball clear the crossbar?
