A football player launches a ball of mass m from the origin (0,0) with an initial speed v, with at an angle a above the horizontal. The ball lands on the ground at (d,0). Neglecting the drag, a) find out the expression of v, in terms of a and d. b) if d=45m, and a=45°, find out the total time of flight. c) Now consider drag force, F=-bv with b-constant, find a formula of the horizontal distance travelled by the ball x₁ with respect to origin when the ball reaches the maximum height yn. Express the answer as a function of a,g,vo,b and m. (F and v are drage force and velocity vectors respectively)

The gravitational force exerted on a baseball is -Fg ĵ . A pitcher throws the ball with velocity υî by uniformly accelerating it along a straight horizontal line fora time interval of Δt = t - 0 = t.

A wooden ball of weight 196 newtons is dropped vertically from a height of 100 meters above the ground. Throughout the fall, drag is present by a factor 4v due to air resistance, where v is the velocity of the ball at time t (in seconds). After how many seconds will the ball impact the ground? Assume that the net force acting on the ball is modeled by m(dv/dt) = mg – kv, where m is the mass of the ball. Also, assume that there is no initial velocity and that the acceleration due to gravity g is 9.8 meters per second squared. Do not round off intermediate steps. Round off the final answer to two decimal places.
