This is dumb, but I can't figure it out. Please help!
Tiger Woods, practicing golf on vacation, hits a golf ball off of the top of his hotel (35 m above ground level) with a velocity of 130 miles per hour. The golf ball is initially moving upward at a 42 degree angle (from horizontal).
a. Calculate the location where the golf ball lands.
b. Calculate the time of flight.
c. Calculate the maximum height reached by the ball.
d. Calculate the height of the ball two-thirds of the way to the landing spot (2/3 of the horizontal displacement, not 2/3 of the time of flight).
Sorry for the ridiculous question, but this is part of my summer homework and I can't even figure out how to set up this problem. If anyone can help me with any of the parts, thank you SO much!!
