Isaac is standing on a ladder picking apples in his grandfather’s orchard. As he pulls each apple off the tree, he tosses it into a basket that sits on the ground 2.1 m down and 3.6 m away horizontally. How fast must Isaac throw the apples (horizontally) to land them in the basket?

4.9t^2 = 2.1
Now, with that t, find v using
vt = 3.6
