5. (III) You decide to drop an apple from rest from the observation platform in the statue of liberty's crown. The height h from which the apple is released is 44.5 meters above the shoulders of your friend Robin H., who happens to be standing on the ground directly below you. Robin H. shoots an arrow straight up at the same instant that you release the apple. The initial velocity of the arrow is 24.3 a) How long after you drop the apple will the arrow hit it? b) what is the speed of the arrow right before it strikes the apple?

Which of the following statements are correct? Adding two vectors creates a new "resultant" vector. When adding parallel vectors, the resultant vector is the sum of the magnitudes of the original vectors. When adding perpendicular vectors, the resultant vector is the sum of the magnitudes of the original vectors. Graphing calculators always report angles in degrees. Vectors pointing in different direction cannot be subtracted. A vector can be broken into x and y component vectors that sum to equal the original vector. Multiplying a vector by a scalar changes the vector's magnitude and direction.
