Standing on top of a tower, a man launches a stone at time t=0 from a point 15.0 m above ground level. At the instant of launch, the stone has a speed of u = 5.00 m s-¹ and moves in a direction that makes an angle of 30° with the horizontal x-axis. At t = 2.00 s, the stone is still above ground level. 5x = Sy = 18 What are the x- and y-components of the stone's displacement relative to its launch point at time t = 2.00 s, and what is the stone's distance from its launch point at this time? Enter numbers, correct to 2 significant figures, in the three empty boxes below: S = 30 X B m m X В
