Students have asked these similar questions

For maximum range, a football should be punted at about 45° to the horizontal—somewhat less due to air drag. But punts are often kicked at angles greater than 45°. Can you think of a reason why?

A golfer strikes a golf ball with his golf club at 42 m/s and at 30 ° above the horizontal, If air resistance and wind are neglected, and if the golf course is perfectly flat and horizontal, at what speed would the golf ball land on the ground?

A soccer player is practicing on the field. He kicks a ball with a speed of 32 m/s at a 53-degree angle with respect to the horizontal toward the net. If the horizontal bar of the goal is 2.3 meters above the ground and he is standing 35-yards in from of the goal, does he score a goal or does the ball soar above the net? Answer this question by finding the height of the ball above the ground when it reaches the net.
