12-36.
A ball is thrown from a window
Assume the acceleration due to gravity is
m/sec2. Write equations for and . Determine the angle at which the ball hits the ground.
First, determine when the ball hits the ground. This is when
. Then angle is the angle created by the slope.
Think of drawing a slope triangle and calculating the angle.
