Sand moves without slipping at 6.0 m/s down a conveyer that is tilted at 150. The sand enters a pipe h = 5z m below the end of the conveyer belt, as shown in the figure below. Assume that the sand is in free fall. The coordinate system is also shown in the figure. (A) What is the acceleration in the horizontal and vertical direction? (B) How long the sand will be in the air (starting from the when it leaves the belt i.e. at origin until it enters the pipe)? (C) What is the horizontal distance “d” between the conveyer belt and the pipe? (D) What is the x-component of sand’s velocity when it enters the pipe? (E) What is the y-component of the sand’s velocity when it enters the pipe? The first 3 sub-parts were already answered for me, I just need parts D and E please.
