Randall D. Knight β Vectors and Coordinate Systems: Problem 34
You are fixing the roof of your house when the head of your hammer breaks loose and slides down. The roof makes an angle of \(30^{\circ}\) with the horizontal, and the head is moving at \(3.5\text{ m/s}\) when it reaches the edge. What are the horizontal and vertical components of the head's velocity just as it leaves the roof?
