These questions are to put on my in class notecard for my physics final as an example. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!!!

A marble rolls off a 1.10 m high table with a speed of 2.5 m/s
a. how long in air??
b. distance traveled horozontially

Carl pulls a cart with a 65 N force above the horozontial
a. calculate horozontial and vertical components
b. if the cart moves 11.5 m, how much work does carl do?

Henry pulls a .45 kg toy with a X direction applied force of 3.2 N. Moves with a constant velocity.
a. net force in Y direction
b. calculate normal force
c. net force in x direction
d. force of friction
e. calculate coefficient of friction

Thanks!!!!!!! This will be of extrodinary help

The marble has only horizontal speed when it leaves the table so the horizontal motion is
x(t)=2.5*t

the vertical is
y(t)=1.1-.5*9.8*t^2

the flight time can be computed by finding t when y(t)=0, taking the positive of two roots
t=sqrt(1.1*2/9.8)

then x(t) when the marble hits the ground by plugging in the t of flight time.

For Carl and the cart, was there an angle from horizontal that Carl applied the force?

Call the angle th.

horizontal=65*cos(th)
Vertical=65*sin(th)
(this also works if there is no angle since sin(0)=0 and cos(0)=1)

the work is the horizontal times the distance
65*cos(th)*11.5

For Henry and the toy, since the toy moves with constant velocity the x direction force is equal to the normal force times the coefficient of friction. This is also equal to the force of friction. The net force in the x direction is zero since it is constant velocity there is no acceleration and F=m*a
