Question

Transcribed Image Text:*42. D In the javelin throw at a track-and-field event, the javelin is
launched at a speed of 29 m/s at an angle of 36° above the horizontal. As
the javelin travels upward, its velocity points above the horizontal at an
angle that decreases as time passes. How much time is required for the
angle to be reduced from 36° at launch to 18°?
