    What is the speed of the ball when it hits the ground?

    I calculated the initial x direction speed (17.4 m/s) and y direction (up & down) 10 m/s using simple trigonometry. The x direction speed does not change (assumes no air friction) and the y direction changes to 17.2 m/s calculated by adding the initial velocity (10 m/s) with the added velocity...
