Question

A golfer hits a ball off the tee with a velocity of  36 m/s at an angle of  30  degrees.  The ball lands on the fairway  24 meters below the tee.

a. Calculate the ball's speed as it hits the fairway.

b. Calculate the landing angle in degrees Below the Horizontal

 

Givens:

Maximum height the ball reaches above the tee = 16.5 m

Velocity of the ball its maximum height = 31.2 m/s

How long the ball is in the air = 4.7 s

How far away horizantally the ball landed = 147 m

Balls speed as it hits the fairway = 42 m/s
