Question

A snow-covered ski slope makes an angle of θslope = 34.0° with the horizontal. When a ski jumper plummets onto the hill, a parcel of splashed snow is thrown up to a maximum displacement of 1.10 m at θsnow = 24.0° from the vertical in the uphill direction as shown in the figure below.

(a) Find the component of its maximum displacement parallel to the surface.
m

(b) Find the component of its maximum displacement perpendicular to the surface.
