Two physics students want to test their knowledge of projectile motion. One student stands on a bridge that is 11.5 m high and plans to throw a tennis ball in the east direction at \( 22.0 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s} \) [ \( 60.0^{\circ} \) above the horizontal]. The second student is in a convertible sports car at rest on the west side of the bridge. The instant the ball is thrown, the student will accelerate the car at a constant \( 6.00 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}^{2} \) so the car will pass under the bridge and catch the ball on the east side of the bridge. How far west of the bridge must the car start?
