A player kicks a football at an angle of 35° with the horizontal and with an initial velocity of 14.8 m/s. A second player standing at a distance of 26.0 m from the first player in the direction of the kick starts running to meet the ball at the instant it is kicked. (a) At what rate should the second player accelerate to catch the ball? (b) What would be the speed of the second player upon catching the ball?

Consider a projectile launched form ground level at an angle of elevation with an initial velocity . The maximum horizontal range is given by xmax=(v 2/0 sin2θ)/g, where g is the acceleration due to gravity. Here is the problem: If a soccer ball is kicked from ground level with an initial velocity of 28 m/sec, what is the smallest positive angle at which the player should kick the ball to reach a teammate 48m down the field? Assume that the ball reaches the teammate at ground level on the fly. Round to the nearest tenth of a degree.
A punter kicks a football at an angle of 30 degrees with the horizontal at an initial speed of 15 m/s. Where should a punt returner position himself to catch the ball just before it strikes the ground?
A projectile is launched from ground level at an angle θ to the top of a cliff which is 195 m away and 155 m high. If the projectile lands right on the cliff edge 7.6 s after it is fired, find the initial velocity of the projectile.
A projectile is launched from ground level to the top of a cliff which is 195 m away and 155 m high. If the projectile lands on top of the cliff 7.6 s later it is fired, find the magnitude and direction of the initial velocity of the projectile.

A football game begins with a kickoff in which the ball travels a horizontal distance of 37 m(approximately 40 yd) and lands at the same level from which it was kicked. If the ball waskicked at an angle of 44 ° above the horizontal, what was its initial speed?
A projectile is thrown from the top of a cliff with an initial speed of 25 m/s at an angle of 600 up from the horizontal. If the projectile lands 100 m from the base of the cliff how tall is the cliff?
A rugby player passes the ball 9.75 m across the field, where it is caught at the same height as it left his hand. At what angle was the ball thrown if its initial speed was 12.0 m/s, assuming that the smaller of the two possible angles was used? What other angle gives the same range? For the pass using the smaller of the two angles, how long is the ball in the air?
