hey guys,

This physics homework is killing me and I need some help trying to do it

Equations of kinematics in two demensions and projetile motion

1) A volleyball is spiked so that it has an ititioal velocity of 15 meters per second (m/s) directed downwardat an angle of 55 degrees below the horizontal. What is the horizontal component of the balls velocity?

2)A rocket is fired at a speed of 75 meters per seond from ground level at an angle of 60 degrees above the horizontal. The rocket is fired toward an 11. 0 meter hight wall which is located 27 meters away. By how much does the rocket clear the top of the wall

Nonequilibrium applications of newtons second law

1. A 1380 Kg car is moving due east with an initial speed of 27 m/s. After 8.00 seconds the car has slowed down to 17.0 m/s. Find the magnitudeand direction of the net forcethat produces the deceleration

any help what so ever would be great

well stephinika i thought about that too. I figured that since the angle opposite to the 55 is 35 and what i did was took cos(35)*15 should equal the length of the mystery angle. I got 12.3... Does that sound resaonable?
