You throw a rock horizontally off a cliff with a speed of 20 m/s. After two seconds, the magnitude of the velocity of the rock is closest to

28 m/s

A projectile is fired at time t = 0.0 s, from point 0 at the edge of a cliff, with initial velocity components of vox = 40 m/s and voy = 300 m/s. The projectile rises, then falls into the sea at point P. The time of flight of the projectile is 75 s. In the figure, the height H of the cliff is closest to:

5060 m

A projectile is fired from the origin (at y = 0 m) as shown in the figure. The initial velocity components are V0x = 400 m/s and V0y = 66 m/s. The projectile reaches maximum height at point P, then it falls and strikes the ground at point Q. In the figure, the y-component of the acceleration of the shell at point P is closest to: (Need Image)

-10 m/s2

An aircraft performs a maneuver called an aileron roll. During this maneuver, the plane turns like a screw as it maintains a straight flight path, by using its ailerons to set the wings in circular motion. Due to structural strength, the airplane can only withstand an acceleration of 3.8m/s2on its wing tips. If the wing span is 7.8m, what is the shortest time it can make a full turn when it performs an aileron roll?

6.4 s

A wind farm generator uses a two-bladed propeller mounted on a pylon at a height of 20 m. The length of each propeller blade is 12 m. A tip of the propeller breaks off when the propeller is vertical. The fragment flies off horizontally, falls, and strikes the ground at P. Just before the fragment broke off, the propellor was turning uniformly, taking 1.2 s for each rotation. In the figure, the angle with respect to the vertical at which the fragment strikes the ground is closest to:

The projectile rises, then falls into the sea at point P. The time of flight of the projectile is 100 s. In the figure, the horizontal distance D is closest to:

A football kicker is attempting a field goal from 29m out. The ball is kicked and just clears the lower bar with a time of flight of 2.7s. If the angle of the kick was 45°, what was the initial speed of the ball?

A wind farm generator uses a two-bladed propeller mounted on a pylon at a height of 20 m. The length of each propeller blade is 12 m. A tip of the propeller breaks off when the propeller is vertical. The fragment flies off horizontally, falls, and strikes the ground at P. Just before the fragment broke off, the propellor was turning uniformly, taking 1.2 s for each rotation.

A fisherman casts his bait toward the river at an angle of 25°. As the line unravels, he notices that the bait and hook reach a maximum height of 3m. What was the initial velocity he launched the bait with? Assume that the line exerts no appreciable drag force on the bait and hook.

A projectile is fired at time t = 0.0 s, from point 0 at the edge of a cliff, with initial velocity components of vox = 80 m/s and voy = 400 m/s.

A rescue plane spots a survivor 76m directly below and releases an emergency kit with a parachute. If the package descends at a constant vertical acceleration of 5.57m/s2and the initial plane horizontal speed was 70.7m/s, how far away from the survivor will it hit the waves?
