From a distance of 20 centimeters, a miniature toy catapult fires a shot. With the marble on top, the building stands 13.5 cm tall, while the marble in the catapult stands 7 cm tall. If the mini toy catapult launches the marble at a 0 degree angle, what is the initial velocity of the marble required to strike the other marble at the top of the building? How much time do we require? How much energy/force is required to

A cannon is on the edge of a vertical cliff 50 m high. The cannon then fires horizontally giving the cannon ball a speed of 420 m/s. What is the speed of impact (in m/s) of the cannon ball?
It is possible to grasp a cup of water at the top and swing it over your head fast enough that the water stays in cup, even though the cup is upside down at the top of the arc. Suppose you swing the cup of water as slow as possible without spilling the water. If your arm is 71 cm, how much time (in seconds) it takes to complete a loop (keep two decimal points)?
