Chapter 3, Problem 53GP
||| Look out! A snowball rolls off a barn roof that slopes downward at an angle of 40.0°. (See Figure 3.40.) The edge of the roof is 14.0 m above the ground, and the snowball has a speed of 7.00 m/s as it rolls off the roof. Ignore air resistance. How far from the edge of the barn does the snowball strike the ground if it doesn’t strike anything else while falling?
