Question

A stone is catapulted at time t = 0, with an initial velocity of magnitude 20.5 m/s and at an angle of 40.2° above the horizontal. What are

the magnitudes of the (a) horizontal and (b) vertical components of its displacement from the catapult site at t = 1.13 s? Repeat for the

(c) horizontal and (d) vertical components at t = 1.77 s, and for the (e) horizontal and (f) vertical components at t = 5.47 s. Assume that

the catapult is positioned on a plain horizontal ground.
