A shot putter releases a shot at 13 m/s at an angle of 42 degrees to the horizontal and from a height of 1.83 m above the ground. Calculate. Note: For each question draw a diagram to show the vector/s. Show all the steps and provide units in the answers. Provide answer to 2 decimal places unless stated otherwise. Answer all parts and show all work please.

A player kicks a football at the start of the game. After a 4 second flight, the ball touches the ground 50 m from the kicking tee. Assume air resistance is negligible and the take-off and landing height are the same (i.e., time to peak = time to fall = ½ total flight time). Calculate: Note: For each question draw a diagram to show the vector/s. Show all the step and provide units in the answers. Provide answer to 2 decimal places unless stated otherwise.)
