A squash player hits a ball with an initial velocity of 40 m/s towards a wall 5 meters away. The ball is strikes when it is 2 meters from the ground.

a) When the ball is hit completely horizontally, does it strike the wall or ground?

b) When there ball is hit with an angle of 40 degrees, does the ball strike the ceiling (the court is 5 m high) or the wall?

c) When the ball is hit with an angle of -10 degrees downward, does it hit the wall or the ground?
