![From the window of a building, a ball is tossed from a height \( y_0 \) above the ground with an initial velocity of 7.80 m/s and angle of 21.0° below the horizontal. It strikes the ground 5.00 s later.
**(a)** If the base of the building is taken to be the origin of the coordinates, with upward the positive y-direction, what are the initial coordinates of the ball? (Use the following as necessary: \( y_0 \). Assume SI units. Do not substitute numerical values; use variables only.)
\[
x_i = \_\_\_
\]
\[
y_i = \_\_\_
\]
**(b)** With the positive x-direction chosen to be out the window, find the x- and y-components of the initial velocity.
\[
v_{i,x} = \_\_\_ \text{ m/s}
\]
\[
v_{i,y} = \_\_\_ \text{ m/s}
\]
**(c)** Find the equations for the x- and y-components of the position as functions of time. (Use the following as necessary: \( y_0 \) and \( t \). Assume SI units.)
\[
x = \_\_\_ \text{ m}
\]
\[
y = \_\_\_ \text{ m}
\]
**(d)** How far horizontally from the base of the building does the ball strike the ground?
\[
\_\_\_ \text{ m}
\]
**(e)** Find the height from which the ball was thrown.
\[
\_\_\_ \text{ m}
\]
**(f)** How long does it take the ball to reach a point 10.0 m below the level of launching?
\[
\_\_\_ \text{ s}
