A brick is thrown upward from the top of a building at an angle of 35° to the horizontal and with an initial speed of 16 m/s. If the brick is in flight for 3.4 s, how tall is the building in meters?

Resolve the velocity vector 16 m/s into x and y component.The y component is 16*sin35This is the initial vertical velocityThe time is 3.4 secuse the kinematic equation d=v(i)t+.5gt^2g=-9.8m/s^2v(i)=16*sin35solve for d which is the displacement, and that is the height of the building
