A ball is shot vertically upward from the surface of another planet. A plot of 'y' versus 't' for the ball is shown in figure where y is the height of the ball above its starting point and t = 0 at the instant the ball is shot. The figure's vertical scaling is set by ys = 30.0 m. What are the magnitudes of (a) the free-fall acceleration on the planet and (b) the initial velocity of the ball?

A man wants to swim across a river from A to B and back from B to A always following line AB. The distance S between points A and B is S. The velocity of the river current v is constant over the entire width of the river. The line AB makes an angle α with the direction of current. Let the man travel with velocity u and at angle β to the line AB. Find time 't' by which he will be back.
