You had it right I believe, what exactly is your question? sin(5x-24) = 0.6 5x - 24 = arcsin(0.6) 5x = 24 + arcsin(0.6) x = [24 + arcsin(0.6)] / 5 X = ~12.174

Ahh, so it would be half of that so ~11.5 m/s? If Vyo is 11.5 in a straight up situation, then I could assume (since the angle is 45 degrees) that Vyo = Vxo and therefore each initial velocity would be ~5.75 m/s?

Final vertical velocity = Initial vertical velocity + (force of gravity * time) 0 m/s = Vyo + (-9.81 m/s * 2.35s) Vyo = ~23 m/s Maybe?

If this sounds ridiculously vague, I apologize - my physics teacher gave us this problem verbally and didn't want to clarify anything. Homework Statement A ball is thrown at a 45 degree angle to the ground and remains in the air for 2.35 seconds by an individual standing 1.81m. How far did...
