realizes that from his position, he needs to exert 25 m/s for the ball to hit the ring before the end of the
last quarter of the game. At what angle must he position the ball, for him get 3 points for his team to win the match
A golfer is teeing off on a 170.0m long par 3 hole. The ball leaves with a velocity of 40.0 m/s at 50.0 degrees above the horizon. Assuming that she hits the ball on a direct path to the hole, how far from the hole will the ball land (no bounces or rolls)? Include a drawing and all steps. Use the projectile motion equations.

(0, 0) with an initial velocity of 5 m/s and 45 angle with the x-
axis. What are the (x, y) coordinates of the highest point reached

The time that a projectile is in the air is dependent upon the horizontal component of the initial velocity. The time that a projectile is in the air is dependent upon the vertical component of the initial velocity. For a projectile which lands at the same height that it is projected from, the time to rise to the peak is equal to the time to fall from its peak to the original height. For the same upward launch angles, projectiles will stay in the air longer if the initial velocity is increased. Assume that a kicked ball in football is a projectile. If the ball takes 3 seconds to rise to the peak of its trajectory, then it will take 6 seconds to fall from the peak of its trajectory to the ground.arrow_forward
