You had it right I believe, what exactly is your question?
sin(5x-24) = 0.6
5x - 24 = arcsin(0.6)
5x = 24 + arcsin(0.6)
x = [24 + arcsin(0.6)] / 5
X = ~12.174
Ahh, so it would be half of that so ~11.5 m/s?
If Vyo is 11.5 in a straight up situation, then I could assume (since the angle is 45 degrees) that Vyo = Vxo and therefore each initial velocity would be ~5.75 m/s?
If this sounds ridiculously vague, I apologize - my physics teacher gave us this problem verbally and didn't want to clarify anything.
Homework Statement
A ball is thrown at a 45 degree angle to the ground and remains in the air for 2.35 seconds by an individual standing 1.81m. How far did...
