Randall D. Knight — Kinematics in Two Dimensions: Problem Exercise_10

Zack is driving past his house in FIGURE Q4.10. He wants to toss his physics book out the window and have it land in his driveway. If he lets go of the book exactly as he passes the end of the driveway, should he direct his throw outward and toward the front of the car (throw 1), straight outward (throw 2), or outward and toward the back of the car (throw 3)? Explain.
