+====== Project 4: Part B: Escape from Korath======
+Success! Your team has made it to the bottom of the “Cliff of Insanity” without alerting Korath the Pursuer to your location. Unfortunately, the piece of tech the team has, which guides you to the nearest dimensional gate, must have been malfunctioning at the top of the cliff because there is not a single-dimensional gate insight.
+As the team discusses the best way to move forward, the snow sitting on top of the metal platform begins to glow. You and a team member quickly brush the snow to the sides of the platform to see what all the fuss is about. The two of you stand in shock as you realize the glowing is coming from a map that has been carved into the metal! Upon further inspection, you and your team member concluded that the glowing map is directing you toward an ominous cave opening in the mountain. At that same moment, your other three team members, who have been re-calibrating the gate finder tech, exclaim that the dimensional gate must be located within the mountain. With few options left, your team decides to head into the mountain opening.
+Inside the cave, you find the remnants of an ancient Kree mining facility. You figure that this specific facility must have been abandoned a long time ago, mostly since it utilizes a spring system to launch the minecarts up to the main track. You flip the switch on the computer system that is attached to the spring and, to your surprise, it illuminates two graphs that describe the properties of the spring launching mechanism.
+You and your team must use the only remaining minecart to launch yourselves across the oil-slicked straightaway of 10 meters, up a 13-meter long ramp (20-degree angle), and into the facility. You need to find out what your velocity will be at the top of the ramp.

+====== Project 4: Part C: Escape from Korath======
+You reach the top of the ramp and realize that there is no more track left and launch into oblivion. There is a 20-meter horizontal gap between the ramp launch and another platform 16 meters high. Where do you land horizontally on this new platform?
