A shot put is thrown upward with a velocity of 35 ft./sec/ at a height of 4 ft. and an angle of 40 degrees. How long will it take for the shot put to be a horizontal distance of 40 ft. from the person throwing it? Acceleration due to gravity is 32 ft./s^2. Round your answer to the nearest hundredth.

Answer 1

Vo = 35Ft./s[40o]
Xo = 35*cos40 = 26.8 m/s.
d = Xo*T = 40
26.8*T = 40
T =

Answer 2

Is the answer 1.49?

Answer 3

Yes.
