A projectile, fired with unknown initial velocity, lands 19.8 s later on the side of a hill, 2710 m away horizontally and 463 m vertically above its starting point. (Ignore any effects due to air resistance.)
(a) What is the vertical component of its initial velocity?
(b) What is the...
A cannon barrel is elevated at an angle of 45°. It fires a ball with a speed of 283 m/s. (For the following questions, ignore air resistance.)
(a) What height does the ball reach?
(b) How long is the ball in the air?
(c) What is the horizontal range of the cannon?

A cargo plane is flying horizontally at an altitude of 10.9 km with a speed of 850 km/h when a large crate falls out of the rear loading ramp. (Ignore any effects due to air resistance.)
(a) How long does it take the crate to hit the ground?
(b)How far horizontally is the crate from the point...
