Hailstones falling vertically with speed...

Hailstones falling vertically with speed of 10 m/s hit with respect to himself the windscreen of a moving car and rebound elastically. Find the velocity of the car if the driver find the hailstones rebound vertically after striking. Windscreen makes an angle `30^(@)` with the horizontal.

On end of a light spring of natural length d and spring constant k is fixed on a rigid wall and the other is attached to a smooth ring of mass m which can slide without friction on a vertical rod fixed at a distance d from the wall. Initially the spring makes an angle of 37^@ with the horizontal. as shown in figure. When the system is released from rest, find the speed of the ring when the spring becomes horizontal.

A circus wishes to develop a new clown act. Fig. (1) shows a diagram of the proposed setup. A clown will be shot out of a cannot with velocity v_(0) at a trajectory that makes an angle theta=45^(@) with the ground. At this angile, the clown will travell a maximum horizontal distance. The cannot will accelerate the clown by applying a constant force of 10, 000N over a very short time of 0.24s . The height above the ground at which the clown begins his trajectory is 10m . A large hoop is to be suspended from the celling by a massless cable at just the right place so that the clown will be able to dive through it when he reaches a maximum height above the ground. After passing through the hoop he will then continue on his trajectory until arriving at the safety net. Fig (2) shows a graph of the vertical component of the clown's velocity as a function of time between the cannon and the hoop. Since the velocity depends on the mass of the particular clown performing the act, the graph shows data for serveral different masses. If the angle the cannot makes with the horiaontal is increased from 45^(@) , the hoop will have to be
