Homework Statement


Given:H0-1.6, time in air - 3.02 s, horizontal distance thrown - 10m
Solve:V0 and write parametric equations for x(t) and y(t) - the horizontal and vertical positions of the ball

Homework Equations


h(t)=-4.9t^2+V0t+h0


The Attempt at a Solution


for V0 I got 14.268
when trying to write y(t) I got y(t)=-4.9t^2+14.268t+1.6

I need help verifying that what I got is correct, if any additional information is needed write. I also need help writing x(t), the horizontal position of the ball equation
