In a volleyball game held in school, Player A at position X serves the ball from a height of 1.3m from the ground, imparting it with an initial velocity at an angle of 50 degrees from the horizontal, He aimed the all to land at point O, 0.5m short to Player B, thus making an ace, Incidentally the Player B is an expert in mind reading. The instant the server hits the ball, Player B started running from rest with a constant acceleration a. Check whether the ball willclear the 2.42m high net.(answer in meters) b. At what horizontal distance in meters from position Y will Player B intercept the ball, given that he intercepts it at a height of 1.6m? c. What is the acceleration in m/s^2 of Player B

In a volleyball game held in school, Player A at position X serves the ball from a height of 1.3m from the ground, imparting it with an initial velocity at an angle of 50 degrees from the horizontal, He aimed the all to land at point O, 0.5m short to Player B, thus making an ace, Incidentally the Player B is an expert in mind reading. The instant the server hits the ball, Player B started running from rest with a constant acceleration

a. Check whether the ball willclear the 2.42m high net.(answer in meters)
b. At what horizontal distance in meters from position Y will Player B intercept the ball, given that he intercepts it at a height of 1.6m?
