  1. Shereen is in physics class, working on her projectile motion lab. Part of the lab is to launch a projectile into a can. This physics lab is taking place outside on the school field. Shereen launches the projectile that is 9.0 m above the ground, with a velocity of 7.0 m/s [43above the horizontal]. The projectile does land in the can. Determine the initial velocity components. What is the time of flight? What is the horizontal distance travelled? What is the speed on impact? At what angle could Shereen have launched the pencil to get a greater horizontal displacement?
  2. Ree is using a bow and arrow to shoot at a falling target during one of their archery training lesson in preparation for an archery competition. Where should Ree aim? Should Ree aim slightly above the target, slightly below the target, or directly at it? Explain.
