Statement: The range of the hockey puck is 22 m.
2. Since the velocity of the puck does not affect its
vertical motion, it would still take 2.6 s to hit the
ground. The range of the puck would be half
because it is travelling at half the velocity
(horizontally). That means the range would be
11 m.

2. The ball thrown at an angle above the horizontal
will take longer to reach the ground. It has an
initial velocity with a vertical component, so it will
take more time for it to reach the ground due to
gravity. The difference in the times to reach the
ground depends on the initial height and the initial
velocity of the first ball.
Section 2.3 Questions, page 81 1. The horizontal and vertical motions of a
projectile take the same amount of time.

Statement: The water tower is 2.0 × 10 m high. 3. (a) To give a projectile the greatest time of
flight, launch it at 90° from the ground because
this angle maximizes the vertical component of the
velocity. At 90° from the ground, all the velocity is
straight up instead of some of the velocity going
into the horizontal component.
(b) To give a projectile the greatest time of flight,
launch it at 45°. If the angle is less than 45°, the
flight will be too short to travel any farther. If the
angle is greater than 45°, the horizontal component
of the velocity is too short to travel any farther.
4. (a) The ball experiences no horizontal
acceleration. The ball accelerates 9.8 m/s2 down
due to gravity.
(b) The ball experiences no horizontal
acceleration. The ball accelerates 9.8 m/s2 down
due to gravity.
(c) The ball experiences no horizontal acceleration.
The ball accelerates 9.8 m/s2 down due to gravity.
5. The arrow strikes the ground before reaching the
target. It would take the arrow more than 1 s to
travel to 60 m to the target when travelling at
55 m/s. But in 1 s, the arrow would fall more than
1.5 m due to gravity. For her next shot, the archer
should increase the initial velocity, aim higher, or a
combination of the two.
