One of the most dramatic videos on the web (but entirely fictitious) supposedly shows a man sliding along a long water slide and then being launched into the air to land in a water pool. Let’s attach some reasonable numbers to such a flight to calculate the velocity with which the man would have hit the water. it indicates the launch and landing sites and includes a superimposed coordinate system with its origin conveniently located at the launch site. From the video we take the horizontal flight distance as D= 20.0 m, the flight time as t = 2.50 s, and the launch angle as 0 =40.0°. Find the magnitude of the velocity at launch and at landing.
