You throw a ball for your dog to fetch. The ball leaves your hand with a speed of 2 m/s, at an angle of 30◦ to the horizontal, and from a height of 1.5 m above the ground. The mass of the ball is 0.5 kg. Neglect air resistance in what follows.
(a) What is the acceleration of the ball while it is in flight? Report it as a vector, that is, specify magnitude and direction (or vertical and horizontal components; if the latter, specify which direc- tion(s) you take as positive).
(b) What is the kinetic energy of the ball as it leaves your hand?
(c) Consider the Earth as being in the system. What is the potential energy of the Earth-ball system (1) as the ball leaves your hand, (2) at its maximum height, and (3) as it finally hits the ground?
(d) How high does the ball rise above the ground?
(e) What is the kinetic energy of the ball as it hits the ground?
(f) Now let the system be the ball alone. How much work does the Earth do on the ball while it is in flight? (from start to finish)
(g) What is the velocity of the ball as it hits the ground? Report it as a vector.
(h) How far away from you (horizontally) does the ball land?

This is important 1. what happens to the speed of molecules in water vapor when it condenses to form a liquid? (2 points) the molecules slow down. the molecules speed up. the molecules slow down and then speed up. the molecules speed up and then slow down. 2. how might human activities change to compensate for a decrease in water supplies? (2 points) humans might build a factory. humans might build drainage systems. humans might extract more water from the ground. human behavior does not change because of the water cycle. i'll be grateful if anyone can answer these 2 questions !
