A famous golfer strikes a golf ball on the ground, giving it an initial velocity v = v0xi + v0yj. Assume the ball moves without air resistance and its motion is described using a Cartesian coordinate system with its origin located at the ballʼs initial position.

Part (a) Determine the vertical component of the initial velocity,' assuming the ball reaches a maximum height of 37 m dunng the drive.

Part (b) Determine the horizontal component of the initial velocity,v0x assuming the ball travels a horizontal distance of 194 m before landing on the green.

Part (c) Evaluate the angle of projection.

During a baseball game, a baseball is struck at ground level by a batter. The ball leaves the baseball bat with an initial velocity v0 = 46 m/s at an angle = 22° above horizontal. Let the origin of the Cartesian coordinate system be the ball's position the instant it leaves the bat. Air resistance may be ignored throughout this problem. 

Part (a) Express the magnitude of the ball's initial horizontal velocity v0x, in terms of v0 and

Part (b) Express the magnitude of the ball's initial vertical velocity voy in terms of v and .

Part (c) Find the ball's maximum vertical height hmax in meters above the ground. 

Part (d) Create an expression in terms of v0and for the time it takes tmax the ball to travel to its maximum vertical height.

Part(e) Calculate the horizontal distance xmax in meters the ball has travelled when returns to ground level

Water leaves a fireman's hose (held near the ground) with an initial velocity at an angle above the horizontal. Assume the water acts as a projectile that moves without air resistance. Use a Cartesian coordinate system with the origin at the hose nozzle position.
