A ball is kicked into the air with a speed of 10m per second at angle of 60 degrees to the horizontal (take g=10).

a) Calculate the horizontal and vertical speed of the ball
b) Calculate the ball's time of flight
c) Calculate the distance from the kicked point that the ball hits the ground.

1 answer

Vx = v cosθ
Vy = v sinθ

h(t) = Vy*t - 5t^2
ball stops when h=0

ball has traveled Vx * t along the ground.
