A player kicks the football at a 46 degree angle with the horizontal, with an initial speed of 12.0 m/s. A second player standing at a distance of 30.0m from the first ( in the direction of the kick) starts running to meet the ball at the instant it is kicked. a.) how fast just get run in order to catch the ball just before it hits the ground express your answer in meters per second?
Displacement, Velocity and Acceleration
In classical mechanics, kinematics deals with the motion of a particle. It deals only with the position, velocity, acceleration, and displacement of a particle. It has no concern about the source of motion.
Linear Displacement
The term "displacement" refers to when something shifts away from its original "location," and "linear" refers to a straight line. As a result, “Linear Displacement” can be described as the movement of an object in a straight line along a single axis, for example, from side to side or up and down. Non-contact sensors such as LVDTs and other linear location sensors can calculate linear displacement. Non-contact sensors such as LVDTs and other linear location sensors can calculate linear displacement. Linear displacement is usually measured in millimeters or inches and may be positive or negative.

The initial speed of the ball,
The angle,
In this case, the initial and final vertical position of the ball is the same as zero (ground level).
