i've diagram to help me and im just stuck about where to start. thanks for helping me.
Homework Equations
i used v^2=u^2+2as and Vox=Vo*cos(angle) <- but i think im wrong :S
The Attempt at a Solution
i got a=-28.57m/s. but and i got that it didn't claer the net. im not sure wot i was doing really. :S
