Homework Statement
You throw a ball toward a wall with a speed of 32 m/s at an angle of 40.0° above the horizontal directly toward a wall. The wall is 22.0 m from the release point of the ball.
(a) How far above the release point does the ball hit the wall?
(b) What are the horizontal and vertical components of its velocity as it hits the wall?
The Attempt at a Solution
a).
(Ux)* t = Sx
(32cos40)* t = 22
t = 22/(32cos40)
Sy = (Uy)t+0.5(Ay)t^2
= {(32sin40)*[22/(32cos40)]
+0.5*(-9.8)*[22/(32cos40)]}m
= 12.16m i know this is wrong
b)b).
Vx= 32cos40
= 24.513m/s this is correct
(Vy)^2 = (Uy)^2+2(Ay)*(Sy)
= (32sin40)^2+2*(-9.8)*(-12.16)
Vy = 25.72m/s this is wrong
having problems with vertical component and part A to the question
