A person is to be released from rest on a swing pulled up fromthevertical by 20 degrees. The Two ropes of the swing are 2.75longand will break if the tension is wither is them is greaterthan355N.

a. What is the maximum weight the person can have so thattheropes will not break?
b. If the angle is increased does this weightincrease,decrease or stay the same?




From what I gather
Tension when swinging is
T= mg= mv^2/r
r= 2.75
mass has to be less than 37

change in potential energy from where the swing was releasedtowhen it reaches straight perpendicular.
to find the change in height =L-L (cos20)





A football quarterback is moving straight backward at a speed of 2.00 m/s when he throws a pass to a player 18.0 m straight downfield.

(a) If a ball is thrown at an angle of 25˚ relative to the ground and is caught at the same height as it is released, what is the initial speed relative to the ground? 

(b) How long does it take to get to the receiver? 

(c) What is its maximum height above the point of release?

Projectile motion. A ski jumper in an aerial competition leaves thelip of the jump with
a speed of v0 = 36 mph (miles per hour) at an angle of ?0 = 65°above the horizontal. The
landing slope is carefully constructed to conform to the equation y= – 0.020 x2, where x
and y are in meters and the coordinate origin is located at the lipof the jump.

a) What is the skier’s maximum height h above the lip of thejump?
b) At what horizontal range R beyond the lip of the jump does sheland?
c) How long is she in the air?
d) What is her speed when she lands?
