### Physics Problem: Projectile Motion

#### Problem Statement:
A football is kicked at ground level with a speed of 17.2 m/s at an angle of 30.2° to the horizontal.

**Question:** How much later does it hit the ground?

#### Diagram:
The diagram shows a right triangle that illustrates the components of the football's initial velocity (V).

- The hypotenuse represents the initial velocity (17.2 m/s).
- One side represents the horizontal velocity component (\(V_x\)).
- The other side represents the vertical velocity component (\(V_y\)).
- The angle between the hypotenuse and the horizontal side is 30.2°.
- There is a point labeled as the ground and the direction of the projectile motion.

The components can be calculated as follows:
- \(V_x = V \cdot \cos(\theta)\)
- \(V_y = V \cdot \sin(\theta)\)

where \(V = 17.2 \, \text{m/s}\) and \(\theta = 30.2^\circ\).

#### Equations and Calculation:
1. Calculate horizontal and vertical components of the velocity:
   - \(V_x = 17.2 \, \text{m/s} \cdot \cos(30.2^\circ)\)
   - \(V_y = 17.2 \, \text{m/s} \cdot \sin(30.2^\circ)\)

2. Using the vertical motion equations to find the time \(t\) it takes for the football to hit the ground:

Since \(\Delta y = 0\) (the football starts and ends at ground level):
\[ \Delta y = V_y \cdot t - \frac{1}{2} g t^2 \]

Given:
- \(g = 9.81 \, \text{m/s}^2\)
- \( \Delta y = 0 \)

\[ 0 = (17.2 \cdot \sin(30.2^\circ)) t - \frac{1}{2} \cdot 9.81 \cdot t^2 \]

This can be solved for \(t\):
\[ t = \frac{2 \cdot (17.2 \cdot \sin(30.2^\circ))}{9.81} \]

Solve this equation to find the time \(t
