State Plane Coordinate Systems

The state plane coordinate system (SPCS or SPS) is a collection of 124 coordinate systems or geographic zones prepared for particular regions of the U.S. Every state consists of one or more than one state plane zone, the boundaries of which generally follow the county lines. Inside the U.S., there are 110 zones in total, 10 more zones in Alaska, 5 in Hawaii, and 1 for Puerto Rico and US Virgin islands. The system is extensively used for geospatial and geographic data assembling by the state and local governments.

Find the angle of banking for a highway curve of 90 m radius designed to accommodate cars travelling at 160 kph, if the coefficient of friction between the tyres and the road is 0.60 Correct answer is 34.96 degrees.
A batter hits the baseball A with an initial velocity of vo = 108 ft/sec directly toward fielder B at an angle of 30° to the horizontal; the initial position of the ball is 2.2 ft above ground level. Fielder B requires 0.37 sec to judge where the ball should be caught and begins moving to that position with constant speed. Because of great experience, fielder B chooses his running speed so that he arrives at the "catch position" simultaneously with the baseball. The catch position is the field location at which the ball altitude is 7.9 ft. Determine the velocity of the ball relative to the fielder at the instant the catch is made.
