A physics student stands on a cliff overlooking a lake and decides to throw a golf ball to her friends in the water below. She throws the golf ball with a velocity of 18.5 m/s at an angle of 37.5∘ above the horizontal. When the golf ball leaves her hand, it is 10.5 mabove the water. How far does the golf ball travel horizontally before it hits the water? Neglect any effects of air resistance when calculating the answer.

As preparation for this problem, review Conceptual Example 9. From the top of a cliff overlooking a lake, a person throws two stones, as shown in the drawing. The cliff is 35.0 m high. The two stones described have identical initial speeds of v0 = 17.6 m/s and are thrown at an angle θ = 31.3 °, one below the horizontal and one above the horizontal. What is the distance between the points where the stones strike the water? Neglect...

A drunk man walking simulation A drunk man stands at origin. There is a cliff at x=10 and home at x=-10. He takes steps randomly left and right. Each step has the probability p of going left and q=1−p of going right. We desire to simulate and plot 100 random trajectories for the interval of 100 time instants. Once hit at home or cliff, a trajectory is stopped immediately and success or dead is declared. Otherwise, alive is declared. Obtain...
