Question

A boy wants to throw a ball into his friend’s window 16.0 m above. Assuming it just reaches the window, he throws the ball at 55.0° to the ground. At what velocity should he throw the ball?
Range = Vo^2*sin(2A)/g = 16 m.
Vo^2*sin(110)/9.8 = 16
0.09589Vo^2 = 16
Vo^2 = 166.863
Vo = 12.92 m/s.
