1. Which equation would you use to find the time it takes for a projectile to reach the ground? Which equation

would you use to find the horizontal distance that a projectile will travel? What's the difference between the

horizontal and vertical motion?

2. A cannonball is launched horizontally at 15 mls from 20 m above the ground. How high would an identical

cannonball need to be dropped from (at the moment the cannon is fired) in order to hit the ground at the same

time? Why?

4. A boat captain wants to cross a 200 m wide river. His boat can travel a maximum speed of 10 m/s. He steers

directly across the river.

a) How long will it take him to cross? 2 (2 ?b) If the current flows downstream at 3 mis, how far downstream will the boat be pushed?

c) What is the resultant velocity (speed and direction) of the boat?

7. A baseball fan catches a home run ball hit by the opposing team and decides to throw it back onto the field. The

fan's seat in the bleachers is 7 m above the field, and the fan throws the ball so that its velocity has an initial

vertical component of 5 m/s upward and an initial horizontal component of 8 m/s toward the field.

a. How long is the thrown ball in the air?
