(a) The horizontal and vertical components of the ball’s initial velocity is 37.8 m/s and 12.14 m/s respectively.
(b) The maximum height above the ground reached by the ball is 8.6 m.
(c) The distance off course the ball would be carried is 0.38 m.
(d) The ball's velocity after 2.0 seconds if there is no crosswind is 38.53 m/s.
<h3>
Horizontal and vertical components of the ball's velocity</h3>
Vx = Vcosθ
Vx = 39.7 x cos(17.8)
Vx = 37.8 m/s
Vy = Vsin(θ)
Vy = 39.7 x sin(17.8)
Vy = 12.14 m/s
<h3>Maximum height reached by the ball</h3>

Maximum height above ground = 7.51 + 1.09 = 8.6 m
<h3>Distance off course after 2 second </h3>
Upward speed of the ball after 2 seconds, V = V₀y - gt
Vy = 12.14 - (2x 9.8)
Vy = - 7.46 m/s
Horizontal velocity will be constant = 37.8 m/s
Resultant speed of the ball after 2 seconds = √(Vy² + Vx²)

<h3>Resultant speed of the ball and crosswind</h3>

<h3>Distance off course the ball would be carried</h3>
d = Δvt = (38.72 - 38.53) x 2
d = 0.38 m
The ball's velocity after 2.0 seconds if there is no crosswind is 38.53 m/s.

The popular GPS devices that people use to find directions while driving use "Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS)".
<u>Explanation:</u>
The umbrella term for all global satellite tracking systems is GNSS i.e Global Satellite Navigation System. This involves satellite constellations circulating over the surface of the earth and continuous signal transmission that allow users to evaluate their location.
A satellite array of 18–30 medium Earth Orbit (MEO) satellites distributed across several orbital planes typically achieves greater coverage for each network. The specific systems differ, but use > 50 ° orbital inclinations and approximately twelve hours orbital cycles.
