BIO Spitting Llamas An agitated llama may spit to assert dominance, or to ward off threats. Llamas can spit a considerable distance, and people handling them need to keep this in mind. If the spittle from a llama is launched from an initial height of 1.8 m with a speed of 6 1 m/s, and at an angle of 12° above horizontal how far will it travel horizontally?

Q1)Serving at a speed of 171 km/h, a tennis player hits the ball at a height of 2.51 m and an angle θ below the horizontal. The player serves at a distance of 12.0 m from the net, which is 0.91 m high.
A. What is the angle θ such that the ball just crosses the net?
B. The out line of the service box is 6.40 m from the net. How far does the ball land from the out line of the service box? (If the ball lands outside the out line, enter your answer as a positive number. If inside, enter as a negative number.)
