3) A typical game at the physics amusement park has you push a puck up a long, frictionless ramp. You can win a "get out of homework free" card if the puck, at its highest point, comes to within 10 cm of the end of the ramp without going off. You give the puck a push, releasing it with a speed of 5.0 m/s (along the incline) when the puck is 8.5 m from the end of the ramp. The puck's speed after traveling 3.0 m up the ramp is 4.0 m/s. Do you win the card? Can you determine the angle of incline of the ramp?
