A girl attempts to hit her brother with a water balloon from her bedroom window. He is 6 meters below her and 3 meters away horizonrally. If she throws the balloon out of the window at an angle of 45 degrees upward, at what speed should she throw the balloon? Please show equations used and step by step process of deriving the solution.
2. A water balloon is thrown upward from a window 25 m above the ground and hits the ground 2.95 s later. What's the maximum height above the window that the balloon reaches? a) 3.77 m b) 2.59 m c) 2.21 m d ) 1.82 m e) 1.17 m 400 m 3. A student who can swim with a speed of 2.5 m/s in still water wants to get to the other side of a 400 m wide river whose...
1. A diver springs upward from a three-meters board. At the instant she contacts the water her speed is 8.90 m/s and her body makes an angle of 75.0° with respect to the surface of the water a) Determine her initial velocity (magnitude and direction). b) How much time did she spend in the air?

1. The determined Wile E. Coyote is still chasing the Road Runner since last week's homework. He is still strapped to the same rocket, giving him an acceleration in the x-direction of 15 m/s2. The coyote chases the Road Runner to the edge of a cliff, where the Road Runner magically continues, and the coyote goes off the cliff. The coyote velocity is completely horizontal and has a magnitude of 47.7 m/s as he goes over the edge. If the...
