Question

A soccer ball is kicked at a speed of 35.0 m/s at an angle of 39.0 degrees above the horizontal. The ball is in the air for 3.90 s.
What is the angle at which the ball lands (with respect to the ground)?

Expert Solution
Step 1

Given data

  • The initial speed of the soccer ball is given as u = 35 m/s.
  • The angle of inclination from horizontal is given as θ=39°.
  • The time of the ball in the air is given as T = 3.9 s.
