1. a boy throws a javelin through a horizontal distance of 64 m. the javelin leaves the hand 2.1 m above the ground.

a) find the horizontal and vertical components of the javelin’s initial velocity. my teacher said to find the time between the distances, and to solve for it not with vo=sqt. 2gh but I’m confused how to solve for it.

b) write parametric equations descriving the position of the object in the horizontal and vertical direction

c) with the derived functions, find out if the time of the motion would change if the javelin were thrown with speed three times as high as in the problem?

d.) how far would the javelin travel under the conditions described in (c)?
thank you for your help in advance :)

A person pulls a 11-kg toboggan for a distance of 3.5 m on a horizontal sheet of ice (frictionless) with a rope directed 25.0º above the horizontal snowy surface. The tension in the rope is 88 N. There is also a zephyr (soft gentle breeze) in the opposite direction of the motion applying a 11.0 N force. (a) How much net work is done on the toboggan by ALL the forces acting on it? (b) If the toboggan starts from...

A car moves along an x axis through a distance of 980 m, starting at rest (at x = 0) and ending at rest (at x = 980 m). Through the first 1/4 of that distance, its acceleration is +3.00 m/s2. Through the next 3/4 of that distance, its acceleration is -1.00 m/s2. What are (a) its travel time through the 980 m and (b) its maximum speed?

Water is being pumped through a horizontal pipe that is 36.0 m long and 13.5 cm in diameter. A pump maintains a gauge pressure of 742 Pa at a large open tank at one end of the pipe. The other end of the pipe is open to the air. If this pipe is replaced by a second one of length 9 m and diameter 5.0 cm, what gauge pressure must the pump provide to give the same volume flow rate...
