From atop a 50m high cliff, Wile E. Coyote launches a projectile at 37° above the horizontal at 35 m/s.
(a) How much time does it take the projectile to hit the bottom of the canyon?
(b) Where should Coyote place the birdseed in order to smash Road Runner? (In other words, how far
from the base of the cliff will the projectile land?)
(c) Where is the projectile at its highest point? (How far above the cliff and how far away from the cliff?)
(d) What is the velocity of the projectile when it hits the ground? Include both magnitude and direction.
(e) Construct a y-position vs. x-position graph of the trajectory of the projectile. Include the following
points: Initial position, final position, position at the highest point, and two additional positions. You
should have at least 5 points on your graph. Use (0, 50) as the initial position. Make up positive and
down negative.
