Answer #1

Here is what I solved before, please modify the figures as per your question. Please let me know if you have further questions. Ifthis helps then kindly rate 5-stars.

A shot-putter throws the shot (mass = 7.3 kg) with an initial speed of 14.4 m/s at a 34.0 degrees angle to the horizontal. Calculate the horizontal distance traveled by the shot if it leaves the athlete's hand at a height of 2.10 m above the ground   

Answer

the mass of the shot is irrelevant. set up the equations ofmotion:






solve for the time when the shot hits the ground (Hy=0):


plug this time into the horizontal distance equation Hx:
