You toss a truck into the air at an angle e above the horizontal so that it will travel in an arc. After you throw it, you know the following: 1. the horizontal component of the truck's velocity is 2 m/s. 2. the vertical component of the truck's velocity is 26 m/s. 3. The truck is in free fall (no air resistance) while it is in the air. Question! What is the horizontal component of the truck's velocity 12.16 seconds after your throw? Assume that the truck is still in the air at this point in ime.

Tobio serves the ball with an initial velocity of 20.5 m/s at an angle of 18˚ from the horizontal, 1.2 m high from the floor. Assuming there is no air resistance and no spin is added to the ball, a. how long will it take for the ball to be just above the net if Tobio serves 10.2 m away from the net? b. how far above the net will the ball be if the standard height is 2.43 m? c. how far away from the net on the other side will the ball land? Is it still inside the court or is it outside? (Volleyball courts are 9 m wide and 18 m long divided equally by the net, so both teams have 9 x 9 m of space each.)
