An arrow is shot at an angle of ?=45? above the horizontal. The arrow hits a tree a horizontal distance D=220m away, at the same height above the ground as it was shot. Use g=9.8m/s2 for the magnitude of the acceleration due to gravity. Suppose someone drops an apple from a vertical distance of 6.0 meters, directly above the point where the arrow hits the tree. How long after the arrow was shot should the apple be dropped, in order for the arrow to pierce the apple as the arrow hits the tree? I keep on getting 5.83 sec. but my sig figs are incorrect somehow

    1. In the 1970 National Basketball Association championship, Jerry West made a 60 ft shot from beyond half court to lead the Los Angeles Lakers to an improbable tie at the buzzer with the New York Knicks. Suppose West threw the ball at an angle of 45.0∘above the horizontal. The basket is 10 ft from the court floor. Neglecting air resistance, estimate the initial speed of the ball. (The Knicks won the game in overtime.) 2. Robin would like to...

    A cannonball is fired horizontally from the top of a cliff. The cannon is at height H = 70.0m above ground level, and the ball is fired with initial horizontal speed v0. Assume acceleration due to gravity to be g = 9.80m/s2 . Part A Assume that the cannon is fired at time t=0 and that the cannonball hits the ground at time tg. What is the y position of the cannonball at the time tg/2? Answer is 52.5 Part...
