During a medieval siege of a castle, the attacking army uses a trebuchet to hurl heavy stones at the castle walls. If the trebuchet launches the stones with a velocity of +48.5" m"/s at an angle of 42.0°, how long does it take the stone to hit the ground? For those settings, what is the maximum range? How high will the stones go? Show all your work.

At a certain instant after jumping from the airplane a, a skydiver b is in the position shown and has reached a terminal (constant) speed vb = 52 m/s. the airplane has the same constant speed va = 52 m/s, and after a period of level flight is just beginning to follow the circular path shown of radius ρa = 2330 m. (a) determine the velocity and acceleration of the airplane relative to the skydiver. (b) determine the time rate of change of the speed vr of the airplane and the radius of curvature ρr of its path, both as observed by the nonrotating skydiver.
