Suppose a man is playing golf, he hits a ball with a velocity of 45 m/sec at an angle of 20 degrees to the horizontal. The projectile model can be used to answer some questions about what will happen to the ball later during its flight. Answer the ff: a. Where will the ball be 2 seconds later? b. What is the greatest height the ball reach? c. How long will the ball be in the air? How far will it travel horizontally before it hits the ground?

When a field goal kicker kicks a football as hard as he can at 45 to the horizontal, the ball just clears the 3-m- high crossbar of the goalposts 45.7 m away. (a) What is the maximum speed the kicker can impart to the football? (b) In addition to clearing the crossbar, the football must be high enough in the air early during its flight to clear the reach of the onrushing defensive lineman. If the lineman is 4.6 m away and has a vertical reach of 2.5 m, can he block the 45.7-m field goal attempt? (c) What if the lineman is 1.0 m away?

Solve by showing the complete solution and illustrate too. A ball is thrown horizontally from the top of a 60.0-m building and lands 100.0 m from the base of the building. Ignore air resistance. (a) How long is the ball in the air (total time)? (b) What must have been the initial horizontal component of the velocity(vix)? (c) What is the vertical component of the velocity just before the ball hits the ground(vfy)?
A river is about 5.7 m wide. Suppose an athlete wants to jump “over the river” and leaps at an angle of 35o with respect to the horizontal. What is the minimal initial speed that would allow the athlete to clear the gap? How much time is the athlete in the air? (please include images to help me understand :))
