Question
2.A 4.24m-tall truck is moving an initial speed of 17.52m/s
due East with an acceleration of 0.30 m/s^2 with a 1.44m-
person standing at the top of a truck. After 12.55s, the man
throws a ball to the ground at shoulder level perpendicular
to the right of the truck's direction with an initial
velocity of 31.92 m/s at an angle of 39.28 above the
horizontal. Assuming shoulder level is 80% of the total
height and negligible air resistance, determine the
magnitude and direction of the displacement of the ball upon
impact. [Use positive angle and CCW]
