corrected question:A golf ball is hit with an angle of elevation 60∘ and speed 25ft/s. Find the horizontal and vertical components of the velocity vector. (Your answer must be exact)

Answer:

Horizontal component=12.5ft/s, vertical component=21.65ft/s

Explanation:

The bal moves with a velocity of 25ft/s at an angle of 60°.

The horizontal component (Vx) and vertical component (Vy) of velocity can be calculated as follows;

Vx=Vcosθ

Vy=Vsinθ

Vx=25cos60°

=12.5ft/s

Vy=25*sin60°

Vy=21.65ft/s
