A soccer player takes a penalty kick 11.0 m from the goal. The player kicks the ball so that it starts to move toward goal with a speed of 89.1 km/h and at a launch angle of 12.0 degrees. The goalkeeper saves the shot, catching the ball right before it could cross the goal line. How high from the ground is the ball when the goalkeeper catches it? (use g=9.80 m/s^2)
