Question

1) A ball is thrown at a 60.0° angle above the horizontal across level ground. It is thrown from a height of 2.00 m above the ground with a speed of 26.3 m/s and experiences no appreciable air resistance. The time the ball remains in the air before striking the ground is closest to

2) A rescue plane flying horizontally at 78.2 m/s spots a survivor in the ocean 194 m directly below and releases an emergency kit with a parachute. Because of the shape of the parachute, it experiences insignificant horizontal air resistance. If the kit descends with a constant vertical acceleration of 6.02 m/s2, how far away from the survivor will it hit the waves?
