A playground is on the flat roof of a city school, h, - 5.30 m above the street below (see figure). The vertical wall of the building is h-7.80 m high, to form a 15-m-high railing around the playground. A ball
has fallen to the street below, and a passerby returns it by launching it at an angle of 0-53.0° above the horizontal at a point d-24.0 m from the base of the building wall. The ball takes 2.20 s to reach a
point vertically above the wall.
