The golfer shown in the figure above has a tall tree (obstacle) in the path of his goal. The tree is 80 m away from the golfer and is 12 m tall. a) Given that the golfer hits the ball at an initial velocity of 45 m/s, at an angle of 20 degrees to the horizontal, determine if the ball would clear the tree. b) A second golfer is faced with a similar challenge, but he instead hits the ball at an initial angle of 30 degrees to the horizontal. Determine the minimum initial velocity that the second golfer must hit the ball to ensure that the ball just clears the tree. c) Calculate the velocity and corresponding angle to the horizontal at the point where the second golfer's ball just clears the tree.

The girl throws 0.8 kg ball toward the wall with an initial velocity VA = 15 m/s as shown in Fig. 2. Parameters are given in Fig. 2. Ball is considered as a particle and there is not friction between the ball and the wall. Determine the velocity of the ball at which it strikes the wall at B. (10 marks) Calculate the velocity of the ball at which it rebounds from the wall if the coefficient of restitution e = 0.6. (15 marks) Determine the distance s (see Fig. 2) from the wall to where it strikes the ground at C. (15 marks)
