Answer:
Explanation:
The balloon would require a time of
t = d/v = 13.5/ (23.6cos38) = 0.7259...s
to travel the horizontal distance.
the vertical position relative to the throw point at that time is
h = 0 + (23.6sin38)(0.7259) + ½(-9.8)(0.7259²)
h = 7.9652...
so as long as the adjacent building is at least 8.0 m higher than the student position, the balloon is in the air for 0.726 s.
If the building is shorter than 8.0 m above the student, the balloon will land on the building roof and will be in the air for a longer period of time
