A soccer player kicks a ball at an angle of θ= 40.0° above the horizontal axis. The initial speed of the ball is v 22 m/s. Neglecting air resistance, calculate (a) the maximum height that the ball reaches; (b) the time of flight of the ball between kickoff and landing; and (c) the range displacement (i.e., range) of the soccer ball.
