Oblique Impact: A 5-kg cannon ball is launched from a height ho = 15 m at...
A cannon launched a cannon ball at 30 degrees off the ground, at 40 m/s. What is the speed of the cannon ball 1) at 3.2 seconds, and 2) when it hits the ground? (Find vertical and horizontal velocity components first).
A cannon shoots a cannonball from the ground level (ignore the height of the cannon) towards a cliff of height h = 170 m. The cannonball is launched with an initial velocity of 110 m/s at an angle of 64° above the horizontal. Neglect air resistance. Assume the cannonball hits the cliff as it descends (on its way down) exactly at the edge, as shown. a. Determine the maximum height above the ground reached by the cannonball.b. What speed will the...
At what minimum velocity would a cannon ball need to be launched from a height of 1.20m to clear a castle wall of height 5.20m at a distance of 100.0m away if the cannon is locked in at a launch angle of 30.0o?
A cannon fires a ball horizontally with a velocity of 240 m/s. If the cannon is in a 44 meter tall tower and the ground below is flat, then (a) How long does the ball take to hit the ground after being fired? (b) At what horizontal distance from the cannon does the ball hit the ground? and (c) What are the horizontal and vertical components of the ball's velocity just before it hits the ground?
A small rubber ball is launched by a compressed-air cannon from ground level with an initial speed of 13.5 m/s directly upward. Choose upward as the positive direction in your analysis. (a) What is the maximum height above the ground that the ball reaches? m (b) How long does it take to reach the maximum height? s (c) How long does it take to reach the ground after it reaches its highest point? s (d) What is its velocity just...
Problem C) A cannon ball is shot up from ground level to the top of a tower which is 200 m away and 150 m high as shown in the figure below. If the cannon ball hits the top of the tower 6.5 s after it was fired, what was the initial velocity of the cannon ball (magnitude and direction) ignoring air resistance.
10. VILA A small rubber ball is launched by a compressed-air cannon from ground level with an initial speed of 13.4 m/s directly upward. Choose upward as the positive direction in your analysis. (a) What is the maximum height above the ground that the ball reaches? (b) How long does it take to reach the maximum height? (c) How long does it take to reach the ground after it reaches its higheſt point? (d) What is its velocity just before...
Projectile Motion Problems for Student Practice Physics C Free Response Option #3 A projectile is launched from a level plane toward a 65 m high cliff. The cliff is 150 m away from the cannon. At launch, the projectile has a velocity of 80 m/s at an angle 55 above the horizontal. Air resistance is negligible. a) Draw a repeesentation of the trajectory of the peojectile (for this one, do this after you find out where it hits) b) Calculate...
A small rubber ball is launched by a compressed-air cannon from ground level with an initial speed of 18.2 m/s directly upward. Choose upward as the positive direction in your analysis. (a) What is the maximum height above the ground that the ball reaches? 0 x What is the final velocity, momentarily, at the highest point? Knowing this, and the given information, can you use a constant acceleration kinematic relation to find the height? Also, be careful of signs. What...
A circus act consists of a performer (a "human cannonball") being launched from a cannon into a net at the other end of the stage. The performer (mass 60 kg) leaves the cannon at a speed of 25 m/s at an angle of 30o above horizontal. She comes out of the cannon at a height of 2 meters above the ground and lands in the net at a horizontal distance of 45 meters away from the launch point. 1. How...
