In the blizzard of ’88, a rancher was forced to drop hay bales from an airplane to feed her cattle. The plane flew horizontally at 160 km/hr and dropped the bales from a height of 80 m above the flat range, (a) She wanted the bales of hay to land 30 m behind the cattle so as to not hit them. Where should she push the bales out of the airplane? (b) To not hit the cattle, what is the largest time error she could make while pushing the bales out of the airplane? Ignore air resistance.
A certain airplane has a speed of 251.4 km/h and is diving and the point where the decoy strikes the ground is d = 600 m. (a) How long is the decoy in the air? (b) How high was the release point? an angle of 0 = 30.0° below the horizontal when the pilot releases a radar decoy (see the figure). The horizontal distance between the release point Je (a) Number Units (b) Number Units
A rocket is launched from Point A with an initial velocity vo of 85 m/s. If the rocket lands a distance L = 65 m from A, determine (a) the angle a that vo forms with the vertical, (b) the maximum height above Point A reached by the rocket. Take B = 50°. Vo [deg). The angle a is _ (ml. The maximum height is

A bomber is flying horizontaily over level terrain at a speed of 270 m/s relative to the ground and at an altitude of 3.40 km. (a) The bombardier releases one bomb. How far does the bomb travel horizontally between its release and its impact on the ground? Ignore the effects of air resistance. km (b) Firing from the people on the ground suddenly Incapacitates the bombardier before he can call, "Bombs away!" Consequently, the pllot maintalns the plane's original course, altitude, and speed througha storm of flak. Where is the plane relative to the bomb's point of impact when the bomb hits the ground? O directly above the bomb O behind the bomb O ahead of the bomb (c) The plane has a telescopic bombsight set so that the bomb hits the target seen in the sight at the moment of release. At what angle from the vertical was the bombsight set? forward from the vertical
A man stands on the roof of a 15.0 m tall building and throws a rock with a velocity of magnitude 30.0 m/s at an angle of 35° above the horizontal. You can ignore air resistance. Calculate: a)the maximum height above the roof reached by the rock. b)the magnitude of the velocity of the rock just before it strikes the ground c)the horizontal range from the base of the building to the point where the rock strikes the ground.
Use the graph below to answer the next three questions. Two projectiles are launched on a planet without an atmosphere (g is NOT 9.8 m/s). Projectile A is in motion for 6 seconds, while projectile B is in motion for 3 seconds before hitting the ground. The +x direction is horizontal and the +y direction is up. 40 32 16 B. 2. 8. x (meters) 10 12 y (meters) 24
An Alaskan rescue plane drops a package of emergency rations to a stranded party of explorers. If the plane is travelling horizontally at 40m/s at a height of 100 m above the ground (a) where does the package strike the ground relative to the point at which it was released? (b) what are the horizontal and vertical components of the velocity of the package just before it hits the ground.
A helicopter wants to drop supplies to isolated mountain climber on a rocky ridge 235m below. If the plane is traveling horizontally with a speed of 250km/h (69.4 m/s) a. How far in advance of the recipients (horizontal distance) must the goods be dropped? b. Suppose, instead, that the plane releases the supplies a horizontal distance of 425m in advance of the mountain climbers. What vertical velocity (up or down) should the supplies be given so that they arrive precisely at the climber’s position? c. With what speed do the supplies land in the latter?
A ball is thrown with a velocity of 40 m/s at an angle of 30° above the horizontal and attains a certain range R. At what other angle will this ball attain the same range keeping its initial velocity the same?
You fire a ball with an initial speed vo at an angle Ø above the surface of an incline, which is itself inclined at an angle 0 above the horizontal (see figure). (a) Find the distance, measured along the incline, from the launch point to the point when the ball strikes the incline. (b) What angle Ø gives the maximum range, measured along the incline? Ignore air resistance. Launching a ball from an inclined ramp. vo
