A rocket is launched from the ground at a 75 degree angle from the horizontal. The rocket’s acceleration is 23 m/s2 throughout the engine’s burn, maintaining the rocket’s angle with the horizontal. Unfortunately, the engine fails after 12 sec, leaving the rocket as a simple projectile. a) What is the highest height the rocket achieves? b) What is the final range (how far from the launch point does the rocket land)? c) What is the time from launch to touch down?

How far did the ball travel horizontally before landing? c. What was the peak height reached by the ball? FIGURE P4.60
Several people stand on a bridge over a river. The bridge is not level, so the people are all different heights above the river. Each person throws a stone to the river. a) The first person is 26.8 m above the river and throws her stone with a speed of 16.6 m/s at an angle of 6 degrees to the horizontal (positive degrees are above horizontal, negative degrees are below). How long does it take her stone to hit the water, in seconds? b) The second person is 19.0 m above the river and throws his stone with a speed of 17.1 m/s at an angle of -21.4 degrees to the horizontal (positive degrees are above horizontal, negative degrees are below). What is the range of his stone, in meters? c)The third person is 9.1 m above the river and throws their stone with a speed of 6.5 m/s at an angle of 9.3 degrees to the horizontal (positive degrees are above horizontal, negative degrees are below). What is the speed of this stone (in m/s) just before it strikes the river?
A baseball player hits a ball 1.1m above the plate at an angle of 42 degrees at a speed of 35 m/s.
