So I've been working on this problem for ALMOST a week now and I can't get the right answers for parts A and C. Although for some reason by answer for B is correct, which should make part A correct but it doesn't. I basically need a very helpful person to just do the problem for me, since no matter what I do I can't get the right answer. I'm using all the correct equations, and I've even had someone redo it to make sure I was using the right information, but it still doesn't work. I put the correct answer in part B, so hopefully I can get down tot he bottom of this. I'd really appreciate it, you have no idea! Thanks!
An airplane, diving at an angle of 52.0° with the vertical, releases a projectile at an altitude of 550 m. The projectile hits the ground 6.00 s after being released. (Assume a coordinate system in which the airplane is moving in the positive horizontal direction, and in the negative vertical direction. Neglect air resistance.) (PART B IS CORRECT, I've tried this multiple times and parts A and C won't come out correctly for anything!)
(a) What is the speed of the aircraft?
_______ m/s
(b) How far did the projectile travel horizontally during its flight?
474.105 m (correct answer)
(c) What were the horizontal and vertical components of its velocity just before striking the ground?
______ m/s (horizontal)
______ m/s (vertical)
