Question
An ideal projectile is launched at a 37.3-degree angle from the horizontal with an initial speed of 8.77 m/s. What is the velocity vector of the projectile at the maximum
height?
i = (6.98 m/s)i
i = (8.77 m/s)î + (8.77 m/s))
i = (6.98 m/s)i + (5.31 m/s))
i = (37.3 m/s)i+
(8.77 m/s)}
i = (5.31 m/s)j

A toy frog is initially at the origin of a Cartesian coordinate system. Upon leaping, its position after a second is given by
F= (5.0 cm)i+ (7.0 cm)j+ (3.0 cm)k What is the distance (in centimeter) traveled by the toy frog assuming straight -line motion?
