Question

1. An archer shots an arrow with an initial speed of 60.0 m/s at an angle of 30.0° with the archer's hand and the horizontal. If the archer is standing from the edge of 90.0 m tall building, then strikes a target on the ground. Note: The distance of the archer's hand with respect to the edge of the building is 5.0m.

Neglect air resistance. Let the archer's hand be y=0. Find: 

a. The time taken by the arrow to hit the target at the ground level.

b. The distance of the target from the base of the tall building.

c. The maximum height reached by the arow with respect

to the archer's hand.

d. The horizontal and the vertical component of the arow's velocity just as it strike the target.

e. The magnitude of the velocity and the direction of the arow just as it strike the target.
