AP Physics 1
1.5 Vectors and Motion in Two Dimensions
Seo-Jun throws a ball to her friend Zuri. The ball leaves Seo-Jun’s hand from a height \( h = 1.5 \) \( \text{m} \) above the ground with an initial speed \( \vec{v}_{s,0} = 12 \) \( \text{m/s} \) at an angle of \( \theta = 25^\circ \) with respect to the horizontal. Zuri catches the ball at a height of \( h = 1.5 \) \( \text{m} \) above the ground.
After catching the ball, Zuri throws it back to Seo-Jun. The ball leaves Zuri’s hand from a height \( h = 1.5 \) \( \text{m} \) above the ground. The ball is moving with a speed of \( 15 \) \( \text{m/s} \) when it reaches a maximum height of \( 5.8 \) \( \text{m} \) above the ground.
At what height \( h’ \) above the ground will the ball be when the return throw reaches Seo-Jun?
