A ball is bounced directly south, with an initial velocity of 10 m/s off the ground, with an angle of elevation of 30 degrees. If the wind is blowing such that the ball moves at a constant 3 m/s to the east, where does the ball land? Set up the acceleration, velocity, and position vector functions to solve this problem.

Expert Solution
Step 1
Given initial velocity of ball is 10 m/sec.
Angle of elevation is .
The ball moves at a constant 3 m/sec to the east.
Therefore, the ball is projected with an angle so that the velocity will be resolved into vertical and horizontal components.
