The free throw line in basketball is 4.57 m (15 ft) from the basket, which is 3.05 m (10 ft) above the floor. A player standing on the free throw line throws the ball with an initial speed of 7.15 m/s, releasing it at a height of 2.44 m (8 ft) above the floor. At what angle above the horizontal must the ball be thrown to exactly hit the basket? Note that most players will use a large initial angle rather than a flat shot because it allows for a larger margin of error. Explicitly show how you follow the steps involved in solving projectile motion problems.
A pine cone falls straight down from a pine tree growing on a 25∘ slope. The pine cone hits the ground with a speed of 15 m/s.

A boy standing in a ditch throws a baseball upward toward his father. The ball leaves his hand at ground level, with an initial speed of 15.0 m/s,at an angle of θ = 59°, from the horizontal. The boy's father reaches up and catches the ball over his head, at a height of 2.0 m above the ground. The father catches the ball on its way down Calculate how long the ball is in the air. ( g = 9.81 m/s2). I've tried 3 different methods using projectile motion and I still get the wrong answers. Please help!
