Question: Use the worked example above to help you solve this problem. A ball is thrown upward from the top of a building at an angle

Use the worked example above to help you solve this problem. A ball is thrown upward from the top of a
building at an angle of 30.0 to the horizontal and with an initial speed of 18.0ms. The point of release is
h=48.0m above the ground.
(a) How long does it take for the ball to hit the ground?
s
(b) Find the ball's speed at impact.
ms
(c) Find the horizontal range of the ball.
m

HINTS: GETTING STARTED I I'M STUCK!
Suppose the ball is thrown from the same height as in the PRACTICE IT problem at an angle of 38.0
below the horizontal. If it strikes the ground 42.0m away, find the following. (Hint: For part (a), use the
equation for the x-displacement to eliminate v0t from the equation for the y-displacement.)
(a) the time of flight
s
(b) the initial speed
ms
(c) the speed and angle of the velocity vector with respect to the horizontal at impact
speed
ms
angle
below the horizontal
