A group of collegiate golfers invent a game where they have to hit a golf ball up to the roof of a building that is about 23.76 m tall. The hole is 3.3 m away from the edge of the roof (label this in the figure). The roof is perfectly level all the way across. a) Isabella strikes the ball causing it to launch from the ground with an initial velocity of 22.70 m/s and at an angle of θ = 72.00 . Is it possible for Isabella to make her shot to the roof? Ignore wind resistance for part (a). b) Assuming that Isabella’s shot from part (a) made it to the roof and the shot is line up to go into the hole that is 3.30 m away from the edge of the roof. The golf ball has a mass of 45.93 g, and experiences a friction force of f=0.133 N. If the ball’s speed is larger than 5.90 m/s when at the hole it will be moving too fast and not go in. Will Isabella’s shot go into the hole? Explain why she does make or does not make it in the hole.

Question

A group of collegiate golfers invent a game where they have to hit a golf ball up to the roof of a building that is about 23.76 m tall. The hole is 3.3 m away from the edge of the roof (label this in the figure). The roof is perfectly level all the way across.

a) Isabella strikes the ball causing it to launch from the ground with an initial velocity of 22.70 m/s and at an angle of θ = 72.00 . Is it possible for Isabella to make her shot to the roof? Ignore wind resistance for part (a).

b) Assuming that Isabella’s shot from part (a) made it to the roof and the shot is line up to go into the hole that is 3.30 m away from the edge of the roof. The golf ball has a mass of 45.93 g, and experiences a friction force of f=0.133 N. If the ball’s speed is larger than 5.90 m/s when at the hole it will be moving too fast and not go in. Will Isabella’s shot go into the hole? Explain why she does make or does not make it in the hole.
