horizontally and 1 meter above where the ball is last
touched; ball duration in the air is 1.00 seconds before
rim contact.

Expert Solution

Step 1
In horizontal direction by
Sx = Ux × t
Ux = 4.2/1 = 4.2 m/s
In vertical direction by
Sy = Uy × t + (1/2)ay × t^2
1 = Uy - (9.8/2)
Uy = 4.9 m/s
So, initial velocity angle
Theta = tan^-1(4.9/4.2) = 49.4°
