An arcade ball is thrown with an initial speed of 7.0 m/s and follows the trajectory shown. The ball enter the basket .95 seconds after it is launched. What are the distances x and y?

Complete Question

The diagram for this question is shown on the first uploaded image

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

     The initial velocity of the arcade ball is  

     The time taken by the ball to enter the basket is  

Generally the x -component of the initial  velocity is  

=>        

Generally the y -component of the initial  velocity is  

=>        

  Generally the distance x is mathematically represented as

=>                    

=>                  

Generally from kinematic equation the distance y is mathematically represented as

=>            

=>
