A football receiver running straight downfield at 5.20 m/s is 10.5 m in front of the quarterback when a pass is thrown downfield at 23.0° above the horizon (see the figure below).

If the receiver never changes speed and the ball is caught at the same height from which it was thrown, find the football's initial speed, the amount of time the football spends in the air, and the distance between the quarterback and the receiver when the catch is made.

(a) the football's initial speed (in m/s)

___________ m/s

(b) the amount of time the football spends in the air (in s)

________________ s

(c) the distance between the quarterback and the receiver when the catch is made (in m)

Very short pulses of high-intensity laser beams are used to repair detached portions of the retina of the eye. The brief pulses of energy absorbed by the retina welds the detached portion back into place. In one such procedure, a laser beam has a wavelength of 810 nmand delivers 250 mW of power spread over a circular spot 510 μm in diameter. The vitreous humor (the transparent fluid that fills most of the eye) has an index of refraction of 1.34.

Part A

If the laser pulses are each 1.50 ms long, how much energy is delivered to the retina with each pulse?

Express your answer with the appropriate units.

Part B

A small spring-loaded launcher is designed to fire steel ball bearings with masses of 0.24 kg . When setting the launcher, you compress the spring a distance of 12 cm . You then fire the launcher straight up and find that the projectiles reach a maximum height of 1.2 m above the point that they leave the launcher. You load another ball bearing, compress the spring a distance of 19 cm , and place it horizontally at the edge of a table that is 0.6 m tall. You fire the ball from the edge of the table. How far from the base of the table does it hit the ground?
