Ooh sinθ is with it. So vyi = 14.7, which would mean t = 1.5
After that I tried using the dx = vx * t equation but that didn't work. What is the formula to solve for horizontal distance?
Sorry that this is going to seem hopeless but I just started taking an online course... What exactly does Vyi stand for? I thought it was the initial velocity in the vertical direction but that must be wrong
Homework Statement
A basketball player throws a ball at an angle of 30º above the horizontal. If the ball in has an initial velocity of 29.4 m/s, how far does it travel?
Homework Equations
Vyf^2 = Vyi^2 + 2(Ay)(Dy) solve for Dy and get
[Vyf^2 - (Vyi^2)] / (2(Ay)) = Dy
