north/south and up/down from Camp 3 to the peak.
b. What is the straight-line distance from Camp 3 to the peak of Mt. Everest? The straight-line distance is the
distance if you drew a straight line from Camp 3 to Mt. Everest.
2. A spinning ball is falling straight downwards at 5 m/s bounces off the floor. Immediately after losing contact
with the floor, the ball is moving at 4 m/s at 30° from vertical as shown. The ball is in contact with the floor for
