...below a horizontal ramp? (a) With what minimum speed must he drive off the horizontal ramp? The vertical height of the ramp is h = 1.5 m above the cars, and the horizontal distance he must clear is L = 17 m.
(b) If the ramp is now tilted upward, so that "takeoff angle" is 10° above the horizontal, what is the new minimum speed?
I got the first part but i don't know how to do the second part. i thought of using the range equation but we've only learned how to do that when the starting and ending points are at the same level
