A football at rest is kicked by a football kicker. The ball is in contact with the kicker's foot for 0.050s, during which it experiences an acceleration a = 340 m/s². The ball is launched at an angle of 40° above the ground (x-axis). Calculate the horizontal and vertical components of the launch velocity.

Textbook Question

(II) On mountainous downhill roads, an escape lane is sometimes placed to the side of the road for trucks whose brakes might fail. Assuming a constant upward slope of 26°, calculate the horizontal and vertical components of the acceleration of a truck that slowed from 110 km/h to rest in 7.0 s. See Fig. 3–43.
