5. A cork shoots out of a champagne bottle at an angle of 50 degrees above the
horizontal. If the cork travels a horizontal distance of 2 meters in 1.5 seconds,
what was its initial speed ?

6. Three vectors A,B and C have components as
follows :
A = (-2,-3) ; B = (9,19) ; C = (-5,-9). Add them together and find the angle that the
resultant makes with the positive x axis in degrees . This angle is :
