Answer

a). $0.967s$ b). $4.19m$ c). $12.7m/s$

Work Step by Step

a). $v_{y}=v_{0}sin\theta=5\times0.5=2.5m/s$ $H=v_{y}t+\frac{1}{2}gt^{2}$ H=7m, From above equation, $t=0.967s$ b). $x=(vcos\theta) t=5cos30^{\circ} \times 0.967=4.19m$ c). Vertical component = $v_{y}t+gt=2.5\times 0.967+9.8\times0.967=11.9m/s$ Thus, impact speed =$ \sqrt (4.33^{2}+11.9^{2})=12.7m/s$
