Question

A farm truck moves due north with a constant velocity of10.00 m/s on a limitless horizontalstretch of road. A boy riding on the back of the truck throws a canof soda upward and catches the projectile at the same location onthe truck bed, but 15.0 m farther downthe road.

(a) In the frame of reference of the truck, at what angle to thevertical does the boy throw the can?
1

(b) What is the initial speed of the can relative to the truck?
2

(c) What is the shape of the can's trajectory as seen by theboy?
   -- asymmetric section of a parabola opening downward
   --   a straight line segment upward and thendownward    

(d) An observer on the ground watches the boy throw the can andcatch it. In this observer's ground frame of reference, describethe shape of the can's path and determine the initialvelocity and the angle above the horizontal of thecan.
