A projectile is launched on a planet other than Earth at a velocity of 38.1 m/s 30.0o above the horizontal. The ground slopes down in the direction of travel, so the projectile impacts the ground 37.9 m below the level from which it was launched. If the horizontal distance it travels is 419 m, what is the magnitude of the acceleration of gravity near the surface of the alien planet?

A projectile is launched on a planet other than Earth at a velocity of 44.8 m/s 30.0o above the horizontal. The ground slopes down in the direction of travel, so the projectile impacts the ground 47.3 m below the level from which it was launched. If the horizontal distance it travels is 376 m, what is the magnitude of the acceleration of gravity near the surface of the alien planet?
