Donald Trump is playing tennis on a rooftop
tennis court on one of his many buildings in New York. Surrounding the court is a 7.0m tall fence.
As a result of the most recent financial crisis, he is off his game and hits
the return on the serve a little harder than expected. The ball just clears the top of the fence
and heads for another building across the street. If Trump is 12 m from the fence determine: a) The initial
launch velocity (including angle) of the ball assuming he hits the ball when
it is 1.0m above the ground. (clue: find your x and y components of the
velocity first) b)
What floor of the building across the street does
the tennis ball hit if the buildings are separated by 70m, the fence on
Trump’s rooftop is 10m from the edge, and Trumps court is located on the 60th
floor (Assume no air resistance 1 floor = 5m) HW: Projectile Motion
