To win the game, a place kicker must kick afootball from a point 23 m (25.1528 yd) fromthe goal, and the ball must clear the crossbar,which is 3.05 m high. When kicked, the ballleaves the ground with a speed of 17 m/s atan angle of 55.7° from the horizontal.The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s.By how much vertical distance does the ballclear the crossbar?S.2

Given: Angle of the kick (θ) = 55.7° velocity of the kick (u) = 17 m/s acceleration due to gravity…

Answered: To win the game, a place kicker must…
