A Flying Arrow

Abbas and Lorenzo watch an arrow fly past them. The arrow has mass \(m = \) 0.437 \(kg\). Abbas is sitting on a stump and sees the arrow move with velocity \(v_x = \) -89.0 \(m/s\). Abbas also notes that Lorenzo is riding a horse and measures Lorenzo’s position to be \(x(t) = \) 24.2 \(m\) + (9.2 \(m/s\)) \(t\), where \(t\) is time measured in seconds.
