Question

A basketball player is shooting some hoops, on one particular shot the ball leaves her hands 14.9m horizonally away from the hoop, and 2.3m vertically off the ground. Let's say she shoots a particular shot with a velocity of 13m/s at an angle of 62.7° with respect to the vertical (Assume no air resistance)

**Part A)** Find the horizontal and vertical components of the angled velocity vector.

\( v_x = \) [ ] unit [ ]

\( v_{yo} = \) [ ] unit [ ]

**Part B)** Find the time it takes the ball to reach the hoop.

\( t = \) [ ] unit [ ]

**Part C)** Assuming she makes her basket, find the height of the hoop.

\( y = \) [ ] unit [ ]
