ANSWER:

Part (a)

Step 1 of 6:

Consider a particle is in the two-dimensional motion with an initial velocity in both directions. The particle also has acceleration in the y-direction. We are going to find the position of the particle in x and y direction at 5s. Assume that the initial position (xo and yo) of the particle is zero.

The y component velocity

The x component acceleration

Assume that the x component velocity is zero and corresponding y component acceleration is also zero.
