For safety reasons, park rangers decide to start an avalanche on a mountain slope. They fire an artillery shell at an angle of 520 above the horizontal with an initial speed of 295 m/s. Thirty seconds later they see the explosion. What is the x coordinates of the shell where it explodes, relative to the firing point?

Chapter 4 P35. To start an avalanche on a mountain slope, an artillery shell is fired with an initial velocity of 300 m/s at 55.0° above the horizontal. It explodes on the mountainside 42.0 s after firing. What are the x and y coordinates of the shell where it explodes, relative to its firing point? 000
A firework rocket is 85 m above the ground when it explodes. Immediately after the explosion one piece is moving 51 m/s at 23° to the upward vertical direction. A second piece is moving at 38 m/s at 11° below the horizontal direction. What what horizontal distance from the explosion site does each piece land?
A rugby player runs with the ball directly toward his opponent’s goal, along the positive direction of an x axis. He can legally pass the ball to a teammate as long as the ball’s velocity relative to the field does not have a positive x component. Suppose the player runs at speed 4.0 m/s relative to the field while he passes the ball with velocity relative to himself. If has magnitude 6.0 m/s, what is the smallest angle it can have for the pass to be legal?

A space vehicle is coasting at a constant velocity of 15.4 m/s in the +y direction relative to a space station. The pilot of the vehicle fires a RCS (reaction control system) thruster, which causes it to accelerate at 0.255 m/s² in the +x direction. After 45.7 s, the pilot shuts off the RCS thruster. After the RCS thruster is turned off, find (a) the magnitude and (b) the direction of the vehicle's velocity relative to the space station. Express the direction as an angle (in degrees) measured from the +y direction. (a) Number i (b) Number i eTextbook and Media Hint Save for Later Units Units Attempts: 0 of 3 used Submit Answer
Problem 4: A person shoots a gun at a target that is 65 m away. The center of the target is at the same height as the gun. The person aims the gun upward at an angle so that the bullet hits the center of the target. The bullet leaves the gun at a velocity of 210 m/s. What is the angle of the gun in degrees from the positive x-axis? Numeric : A numeric value is expected and not an expression.
An Olympic diver is on a diving platform 3.50 m above the water. To start her dive, she runs off of the platform with a speed of 1.3 m/s in the horizontal direction. What is the diver's speed, in m/s, just before she enters the water? m/s
A space vehicle is coasting at a constant velocity of 19.3 m/s in the +y direction relative to a space station. The pilot of the vehicle fires aRCS (reaction control system) thruster, which causes it to accelerate at 0.337 m/2 in the + direction. After 59.8 s, the pilot shuts off the RCS thruster. After the RCS thruster is turned off, find (a) the magnitude and (b) the direction of the vehicle's velocity relative to the space station. Express the direction as an angle (in degrees) measured from the +y direction.
A space vehicle is coasting at a constant velocity of 23.7 m/s in the +y direction relative to a space station. The pilot of the vehicle fires a RCS (reaction control system) thruster, which causes it to accelerate at 0.212 m/s2 in the +x direction. After 37.9 s, the pilot shuts off the RCS thruster. After the RCS thruster is turned off, find (a) the magnitude and (b) the direction of the vehicle's velocity relative to the space station. Express the direction as an angle (in degrees) measured from the +y direction.
A boy is standing from the top of a cliff 8 m from the ground and he has a bow which is aimed 40 degrees from the horizontal. He can release the bow with an initial velocity of 15 m/s. An animal is below the cliff and is moving towards the boy at a velocity of 5 m/s. For the bow to hit the animal, at what distance D should the animal be when the bow is fired?
