    The document contains 8 practice problems involving projectile motion launched or thrown at an angle. The problems require calculating angles, speeds, distances, or times using trigonometric identities and kinematic equations of motion. Specific examples include calculating the angle a baseball is pitched at, the maximum height reached by a kicked football, and the angle of a long jump.

    Projectiles Launched at an Angle HOMEWORK[Document title]

    1. A baseball is thrown with an initial speed of 15.0 m/s. If the ball’s horizontal displacement is
    17.6 m, at what angle with respect to the ground is the ball pitched? Use the trigonometric
    identity 2(sin q)(cos q) = sin (2q) to solve for q. (25.1 degrees)

    2. 2. A football is kicked so that its initial speed is 23.1 m/s. If the football reaches a maximum
    height of 16.9 m, at what angle with respect to the ground is the ball kicked? (52.0 Degrees)

    3. 3. Jackie Joyner-Kersee’s record long jump is 7.49 m. Suppose she ran 9.50 m/s to jump this
    horizontal distance. At what angle above the horizontal did she jump? Use the trigonometric
    identity 2(sin q)(cos q) = sin (2q) to solve for q. (27.3 degrees)

    4. Olympic platform divers jump from a diving board that is 10.0 m above the water. Suppose a
    diver jumps from the board with an initial speed of 6.03 m/s. The diver reaches a maximum
    height of 11.7 m above the water, and lands in the water at a horizontal distance of 3.62 m from
    the end of the board. At what angle with respect to the board does the diver leave the board?
    (33.0 degrees)

    5. A ball is thrown from a roof with a speed of 10.0 m/s and an angle of 37.0° with respect to the
    horizontal. What are the vertical and horizontal components of the ball’s displacement 2.5 s
    after it is thrown? (73.3 degrees)

    6. A downed pilot fires a flare from a flare gun. The flare has an initial speed of 250 m/s and is
    fired at an angle of 35° to the ground. How long does it take for the flare to reach its maximum
    altitude? (-16 m)

    7. In the sport of ski jumping, a skier travels down the slope of a hill until he or she reaches the
    takeoff. The takeoff is slanted slightly below the horizontal, so that the skier is able to travel in
    the air just above the ground. Suppose a skier leaves the takeoff and lands 73.0 m horizontally
    beyond the takeoff and −52.8 m below the takeoff. If the takeoff angle is −8.00° below the
    horizontal, what is the skier’s initial speed? (15s)

    8. 9. A shingle slides down a roof having a 30.0° pitch and falls off with a speed of 2.0 m/s. How
    long will it take to hit the ground 45 m below? (25m/s)
