1. The shot putter shown in the diagram throws his shot forward with a velocity of 11.0 ms-1 with respect to his hand, in a direction 55.0°
above the horizontal. At the same time, the shot putter's body is moving forwards horizontally, with a velocity of 2.80 ms-1. At the
moment of release, the shot is 2.40 m above ground.
