A ball is kicked with a velocity of 20m/s and at an angle of 53° . How long will the ball take in the air?. How far away will it land? . How high will it go?
The time the ball will take in the air can be calculated using the equation:
Time = (2*Velocity*sin(Angle))/g
Where g is the acceleration due to gravity (9.8 m/s2).
Time = (2*20*sin(53))/9.8
Time = 2.9 seconds
The distance the ball will travel can be calculated using the equation:
Distance = (Velocity^2*sin(2*Angle))/g
Distance = (20^2*sin(2*53))/9.8
Distance = 28.3 meters
The height the ball will reach can be calculated using the equation:
Height = (Velocity^2*sin^2(Angle))/2g
Height = (20^2*sin^2(53))/2*9.8
Height = 8.3 meters
