Homework Statement
A cannon fires a ball at 140 m/s
at an angle of 35 degrees above
the horizontal.
• Find the position of the ball 9.25
seconds after launch.
• Find its velocity 9.25 seconds after
launch.
• Is the ball on its way up or down?
• How long does it take the ball to
arrive at the same level as it was
launched?
• What is its velocity when it arrives at
the same level as it was launched?
• What is the angle at which it arrives
at the same level as it was launched?
Relevant Equations
v_x=v_xi
x-x_i=v_xi(t)
𝑣𝑦 = 𝑣𝑦𝑖 − 𝑔t
𝑦 − 𝑦𝑖 = 𝑣𝑦(t)-1/2gt^2
Handwritten physics projectile motion working on lined paper: a launch diagram with 140 m/s at 35 degrees, vx = 114.7 m/s, vy = 80.3 - 9.8(4.25) = 10.4 m/s, and t = 4.08 s.
 
Hello Ovreberg, :welcome: !

Please read the guidelines: if you expect helpers to decipher things like
Handwritten notation reading (4, 8) and (4, 2.5) on two lines, apparently coordinate pairs; the image is small and blurry.
you did not understand them. Either type your work (preferred) or post a very clear picture with textual explanation what you do.

What is your question ?

I can decipher a ##\vec v = \sqrt{...}## which can't be right: LHS is a vector and RHS is a scalar !
