Question

A basketball player is shooting some hoops, on one particular shot the ball leaves her hands 14.9m horizonally away from the hoop, and 2.3m vertically off the ground. Let's say she shoots a particular shot with a velocity of 13m/s at an angle of 62.7° with respect to the vertical (Assume no air resistance)
