Question

A ball is thrown horizontally from the top of a 55.0-m building and lands 103.8 m from the base of the building. Ignore air resistance. (Assume the ball is thrown in the +x direction and upward to be in the +y direction.)

What is the vertical component of the velocity (in m/s) just before the ball hits the ground? (Indicate the direction with the sign of your answer.)
____m/s
 
What is the velocity (in m/s) (including both the horizontal and vertical components) of the ball just before it hits the ground?
____ ° counterclockwise from the +x-axis
Expert Solution
Check Mark
Step 1

The ball is thrown horizontally  from the top surface y=55 m

The air resistance R=103.8 m
