  1. A shot putter projected a shot at the angle of 28 degrees at a velocity of 47 fps. The shot was released from 7 ft from the ground.

a. Compute the velocity in the y and x direction (in fps).

b. Compute the time from release of the shot put to the highest point.

c. Compute the time from the highest point to the ground.

d. Determine the total time the shot traveled while in the air.

e. How far will the ball travel (in feet)?
