Exercise 3 Motion in two dimensions [12 points] A apple is hanging from a height h and an archer on the ground d meters away from the tree wants to hit it with a arrow. He aims straight at the apple and releases the arrow. Exactly at the same time the apple starts falling from the tree. The initial speed of the arrow is v.
a) At what time does the trajectory of the arrow cross the trajectory of the apple? What height do apple and arrow have at that time? Make a sketch of the trajectories.
b) Show that the archer will hit the apple provided that the initial speed of the arrow obeys v ≥ (d2 +h2 )g . What does this requirement ensure?
2h
c) Assuming the archer does not aim at the apple, what is the optimal angle to shoot the arrow so that it covers the maximal horizontal distance? What is the range of the arrow in this case? Hint: You might need the trigonometric identity 2 cos φ sin φ = sin 2φ.
Note that we neglect friction, the curvature of the Earth, and the finite size of arrow and apple, which are both assumed to be material points in this problem.

I'm kinda lost ! 1. when marilyn takes her pet dog for a walk, the dog walks at a veryconsistent pace of 0.55 m/s. draw a position-time graph to representmarilyn's dog walking the 19.8 m distance from the front of her house tothe nearest fire hydrant.2. both car a and car bleave school when a stopwatch reads zero. car atravels at a constant 75 km/h, and car b travels at a constant 85 km/h. a) draw a position-time graph showing the motion of both cars. howfar are the two cars from school when the stopwatch reads 2 hrs? calculate the distances and show them on your graph. b) both cars passed a gas station 120 km from the school. when dideach car pass the gas station? calculate the times and show themon your graph.3. the figure below shows the position-time graph showing a shopper'smovement up and down the aisle at a store. a) write a story describing the shopper's movements at the store. b) when does the shopper have a position of 6 m? c) how much time passes between when the shopper enters the aisleand when he gets to a position of 12 m? what is the shopper's averagevelocity between 37 s and 46 s?

The law of entropy can also be called the law of increasing disorder, but this law seems to contradict the existence of living organisms that are able to organize chemicals into organic molecules. prepare for a class debate on the validity of the following arguments: a. living things are not subject to the laws of thermodynamics. b. the increase in the universe's entropy due to life processes is greater than the decrease in entropy within a living organism.
