A golfer hits a shot to a green that is elevated 2.50 m above the point where the ball is struck. The ball leaves the club at a speed of 17.8 m/s at an angle of 50.0˚ above the horizontal. It rises to its maximum height and then falls down to the green. Ignoring air resistance, find the speed of the ball just before it lands.

In attempting to pass the puck to a teammate, a hockey player gives it an initial speed of 1.94 m/s. However, this speed is inadequate to compensate for the kinetic friction between the puck and the ice. As a result, the puck travels only one-half the distance between the players before sliding to a halt. What minimum initial speed should the puck have been given so that it reached the teammate, assuming that the same force of kinetic friction acted on the puck everywhere between the two players?
can you also please do the same question but use 1.02 m/s so,
In attempting to pass the puck to a teammate, a hockey player gives it an initial speed of 1.02 m/s. However, this speed is inadequate to compensate for the kinetic friction between the puck and the ice. As a result, the puck travels only one-half the distance between the players before sliding to a halt. What minimum initial speed should the puck have been given so that it reached the teammate, assuming that the same force of kinetic friction acted on the puck everywhere between the two players?
This would help so much if you could answer both 1.94 and 1.02 m/s.. THANKS!

An injured monkey sits perched on a tree branch 6.0 m above the ground, while a wildlife veterinarian is kneeling down in the bushes 86.5 m away attempting to subdue the monkey with a tranquilizer gun. The vet knows that the moment the gun fires the monkey will be frightened and fall down from the branch. What angle up from the ground must the veterinarian aim the gun so that the tranquilizer dart will hit the falling monkey?

a 0.426-kg block sliding from A to B along a frictionless surface. When the block reaches B, it continues to slide along the horizontal surface BC where the kinetic frictional force acts. As a result, the block slows down, coming to rest at C. The kinetic energy of the block at A is 39.0 J, and the heights of A and B are 12.4 and 6.10 m above the ground, respectively. (a) What is the value of the kinetic energy of the block when it reaches B? (b) How much work does the kinetic frictional force do during the BC segment of the trip?

An ideal spring is lying horizontally on a frictionless surface. One end of the spring is attached to a wall. The other end is attached to a moveable block that has a mass of 5 kg. The block is pulled so that the spring stretches from its equilibrium position by 0.65 m. Then the block is released (from rest), and as a result the system oscillates with a frequency of 0.40 Hz (that's 0.40 rev/sec) Find:
Show all your steps
a) The acceleratiuon of the block when the spring is stretched by 0.28 m.
b) the maximum force magnitude exerted by the spring on the block.
c)the oscillation frequency of a 2.5 kg blcok under the same circumstances (i.e. with the same spring and initial displacement).

A bucket of water of mass 15.1 kg is suspended by a rope wrapped around a windlass, that is a solid cylinder with diameter 0.330 m with mass 13.0 kg . The cylinder pivots on a frictionless axle through its center. The bucket is released from rest at the top of a well and falls a distance 11.0 m to the water. You can ignore the weight of the rope.
a-What is the tension in the rope while the bucket is falling?
Take the free fall acceleration to be g = 9.80 m/s2 .
b-With what speed does the bucket strike the water?
Take the free fall acceleration to be g = 9.80 m/s2 .
c-What is the time of fall?
Take the free fall acceleration to be g = 9.80 m/s2 .
d-While the bucket is falling, what is the force exerted on the cylinder by the axle?
Take the free fall acceleration to be g = 9.80 m/s2 .

Two masses are connected by a light string passing over a light, frictionless pulley as in Figure P5.63. The m1 = 5.30 kg object is released from rest at a point 4.00 m above the floor, where the m2 = 3.35 kg object rests.

A sky diver of mass 53 kg can slow herself to a constant speed of 92 km/h by orienting her body horizontally, looking straight down with arms and legs extended. In this position, she presents the maximum cross-sectional area and thus maximizes the air-drag force on her.
1) a) What is the magnitude of the drag force on the sky diver?
b) If the drag force is equal to bv2, what is the value of b?
c) At some instant she quickly flips into a "knife" position, orienting her body vertically with her arms straight down. Suppose this reduces the value of b to 50 percent of the value in Parts (a) and (b). What is her acceleration at the instant she achieves the "knife" position?
