Two waves traveling on a string in the same direction : Two waves traveling on a string in the same direction both have a frequency of 141 Hz, a wavelength of .43 m, and an amplitude of .16 m. What is the amplitude of the resultant wave if the original waves differ in phase by n/4 rads?

Batter hits a pitched ball when the center of the ball : A batter hits a pitched ball when the center of the ball is 1.09 m above the ground. The ball leaves the bat at an angle of 45° with the ground. With that launch, the ball should have a horizontal range (returning to the launch level) of 107 m.

Angle of elevation that he can kick football and score goal : A football kicker can give the ball an initial speed of 24 m/s. He is 54 m from the goalpost which has a crossbar 3.46 m high. What is the smallest angle of elevation that he can kick the football and score a field goal?
