Problem 8: A person is standing on top of a building. While standing at the edge of the building the person throws a water balloon downward with a speed of 24 m/s and at an angle of 36° below the horizontal. It takes 3.1 s for the water balloon to hit the person's friend. Part (a) How high is the building in meters? Numeric : A numeric value is expected and not an expression. h = Part (b) How fast is the water balloon moving when it hits the friend on the ground? Give your answer in m/s. Numeric : A numeric value is expected and not an expression. v= Part (c) What was the horizontal distance between the friend on the ground and the building in meters? Numeric : A numeric value is expected and not an expression. dx = %3!
