A playground is on the flat roof of a city school, 6.00m above the street below. The vertical wall of the building is h=7.00m high, forming a 1-m-high railing around the playground. A ball has fallen to the street below, and a passerby returns it by launching it at an angle of ɵ=53.0o above the horizontal at a point d=24.0 m from the base of the building wall. The ball takes 2.20s to reach a point vertically above the wall. Find the vertical distance by which the ball clears the wall. show the complete solution.

A playground is on the flat roof of a city school, 6.00m above the street below. The vertical wall
of the building is h=7.00m high, forming a l-m-high railing around the playground. A ball has
fallen to the street below, and a passerby returns it by launching it at an angle of e=53.0° above
the horizontal at a point d=24.0 m from the base of the building wall. The ball takes 2.20s to
reach a point vertically above the wall. Find the vertical distance by which the ball clears the
wall.
