Many professional golfers can hit a golf ball 300 meters with a driver. The face of a driver and the swing pattern causes the ball to leave the club at around 18 degrees from the horizontal. Assuming the ball travels exactly 300 meters in the air before it bounces the first time and ignoring air resistance, what is the approximate speed of the ball as it leaves the club?

300 m = (Vo^2*sin2A)/g
A = 18, so 2A = 36 degrees
Solve for Vo
A = 18, so 2A = 36 degrees
Solve for Vo
