Question
A football is kicked at an angle of 45° to the horizontal over a defence line up with a velocity of 15m/s. Calculate the magnitude of the horizontal velocity of the ball at its highest point neglecting friction
Answers
scott
the horizontal velocity is constant regardless of height
... the vertical velocity changes due to gravity
horizontal velocity = 15 m/s * cos(45º)
... the vertical velocity changes due to gravity
horizontal velocity = 15 m/s * cos(45º)
