In the figure, a ball is launched with a velocity of magnitude 7.00 m/s, at an angle of 41.0° to the horizontal. The launch point is at the base of a ramp of horizontal length d1 = 6.00 m and height d2 = 3.60 m. A plateau is located at the top of the ramp.
Does the ball land on the ramp or the plateau?
When it lands, what are the magnitude and angle of its displacement from the launch point?
