(a)
To calculate: The parametric equation describing the position of the ball that is hit with the initial velocity of 180 feet/second at an angle of 40 degree to the horizontal.
(b)
To calculate: The ball’s position after 1, 2 and 3 second. Ball is hit with the initial velocity of 180 feet/second at an angle of 40 degree to the horizontal.
(c)
To calculate: The time for which the ball is hit with the initial velocity of 180 feet/second at an angle of 40 degree to the horizontal is in flight. Distance in totality travelled horizontally by the ball and whether the answer is consistent with the figure which is.
(d)
An interesting observation about the path of the ball hit with the initial velocity of 180 feet/second at an angle of 40 degree to the horizontal,
