Question

A person picking apples stand on a ladder 3.0 m above the ground. He throws them into

a basket 2.0 m away. How fast must the person throw the apple in order for it to land in
the basket?

Answer 1

3.0m = 1/2 (9.8) /\ t^2
/\t = 0.7825
/\ is a triangle

2.0m = V_x (0.7825)
V_x = 2.56 m/s
(V_x subscript x)
