Answer

$v_{y}=-171\ m/s.$

Work Step by Step

We use the discussion of part (a). We have found $ v_{0}=202m/s$, $\theta=-37^{o}$, and we are given that $t=5.00s$. Eq. 4-23 gives the $v_{y}$ component of the velocity (just before impact) $v_{y}=v_{0}\sin\theta_{0}-gt$ $=(202m/s)\sin(-37.0^{o})-(9.80m/\mathrm{s}^{2})(5.00s)$ $=-171m/s.$
