Serway & Jewett — Vectors: Problem 16

A snow-covered ski slope makes an angle of \(35.0^{\circ}\) with the horizontal. When a ski jumper plummets onto the hill, a parcel of splashed snow is thrown up to a maximum displacement of \(1.50 \text{ m}\) at \(16.0^{\circ}\) from the vertical in the uphill direction as shown in Figure P3.16. Find the components of its maximum displacement (a) parallel to the surface and (b) perpendicular to the surface.
