A golf ball hit from the tee at ground level lands 62 m ahead
3.0 s later. What was the initial speed of the ball and at what
angle with the horizontal did it come out?
After a golf ball is hit it takes off with an initial speed of
28.7 m/s and at an angle of 39.5° with respect to the horizontal.
The golf field is flat and horizontal. Neglecting air resistance
how far will the golf ball fly?
How high will the golf ball rise?
How much time will the ball spend in the air?
How far would the ball fly if the initial speed was doubled?

A ball is kicked horizontally with 15 m/s initial speed from a
cliff. The ball lands 75 m away from the base of the cliff (R =
75m). What is the height of the cliff? What is the hitting velocity
(the velocity of the ball before it hits the ground)? What is the
total time of flight?
On the Apollo 14 mission to the moon, astronaut Alan Shepard hit
a golf ball with a golf club improvised from a tool. The free-fall
acceleration on the moon is 1/6 of its value on earth. Suppose he
hit the ball with a speed of 35 m/s at an angle 32 ∘ above the
horizontal. How long was the ball in flight?
On the Apollo 14 mission to the moon, astronaut Alan Shepard hit
a golf ball with a 6 iron. The acceleration due to gravity on the
moon is 1/6 of its value on earth. Suppose he hits the ball with a
speed of 30 m/sm/s at an angle 35 ∘∘ above the horizontal.
How much farther did the ball travel on the moon than it would
have on earth?
Express your answer to two significant figures and include the

Ten professional golfers are asked to hit each of two brands of
golf ball with their drivers. The golfers do not know which brand
they are hitting, and the order in which they hit the balls is
determined by flipping a coin. Is there evidence that Brand 1 golf
balls are hit a smaller distance, on average, than Brand 2 golf
balls?

On the Apollo 14 mission to the moon, astronaut Alan Shepard hit
a golf ball with a 6 iron. The acceleration due to gravity on the
moon is 1/6 of its value on earth. Suppose he hits the ball with a
speed of 18 m/s at an angle 45 ∘ above the horizontal. a)How much
farther did the ball travel on the moon than it would have on
earth? b)For how much more time was the ball in flight?
On the Apollo 14 mission to the moon, astronaut Alan Shepard hit
a golf ball with a golf club improvised from a tool. The free-fall
acceleration on the moon is 1/6 of its value on earth. Suppose he
hit the ball with a speed of 33 m/s at an angle 36 ∘∘ above the
