Please help answer questions 3, and 4 info: Imagine the scene based on your observations of American football games. If you are familiar with such games, you may realize that 40 yards is a relatively long field goal kick so we might expect the ball to be falling from its highest point in part (b). There is no way we can predict an answer to part (a) based on our experience because our experience doesn't involve the numerical values given in the problem. We would expect the vertical position of the ball when it arrives at the goal post to be a few meters. Even though air resistance can have an effect on the motion of a football, we will ignore air resistance so that we can use our analysis models to solve the problem.

info: Imagine the scene based on your observations of American football games. If you are familiar with such games, you may realize that 40 yards is a relatively long field goal kick so we might expect the ball to be falling from its highest point in part (b). There is no way we can predict an answer to part (a) based on our experience because our experience doesn't involve the numerical values given in the problem. We would expect the vertical position of the ball when it arrives at the goal post to be a few meters.

Even though air resistance can have an effect on the motion of a football, we will ignore air resistance so that we can use our analysis models to solve the problem.

Part 3 of 9 - Analyze:
(a) By how much does the ball clear or fall short of clearing the crossbar?
(3) Let us first determine the time at which the football arrives at the goal post. This can be interpreted as the
time at which the football has covered the horizontal distance from the kick point (defined as x, = 0) to the
goal post. Consider the correct choice in question (1). Based on that model, choose the response below that
gives the correct time at which the football is at the goal post in terms of the position x, of the goal post, the
initial velocity v, and the launch angle 0.
O t=
Xf
V; sin 0
O t=
V, cos 0
Xf
O t =
V; cos 0
none of the above
(4) Let's now find the vertical position of the football when it arrives at the goal post. Based on the correct
choice in question (2), what is the most useful choice of equation from that model in finding the vertical
position of the football when it arrives at the goal post?
O vyf = Vyi - gt
O Yf = Y;+(Vyi
