v = 12.0 ms-1
1. * A ball is kicked horizontally off a 15.0 m cliff at a
velocity of 12.0 m/s as shown. Find:
c) the velocity of the ball at impact. [20.9 ms-1 at 55.0° below +x axis]
2. * The same ball in the previous exercise is now v = 12.0 ms-1 = 30.0°
initially kicked at an angle of 30.0° above the
horizontal. Find:

3. A sphere is projected
horizontally. The sphere is
photographed at intervals of
0.10 s. The images of the
sphere are shown against a
grid on the diagram. Air
resistance is negligible.
(c) On the grid, draw the path of the sphere assuming air resistance is not negligible.

5. A girl stands at the edge of a vertical cliff and throws a stone vertically
upwards. The stone leaves the girl’s hand with a speed v = 8.0 ms–1.
Ignore air resistance and determine:
a) the maximum height reached by the stone. [3.3 m]
b) the time taken by the stone to reach its maximum height. [0.80 s]
c) The time between the stone leaving the girl’s hand and hitting the sea is 3.0 s. Determine the
height of the cliff. [21 m]
6. A ball is projected from ground level with a speed of 28 m s–1 at an angle of 30° to the horizontal as
shown below.
There is a wall of height h at a distance of 16 m from the point of projection of the ball. Air resistance
is negligible. Calculate the initial magnitudes of:
a) the horizontal velocity of the ball; [24 ms-1]
c) The ball just passes over the wall. Determine the maximum height of the wall. [7.1 m]
