A soccer ball is kicked horizontally at 16.1 m/s off the top of a field house and lands 37.5 metes from the base of the field house. Determine the height of the field house.

Answer 1

Time, t, to reach ground = Δx/vix
= 2.329 s

Use kinematics equation
Δy=viy*t+(1/2)g(t)²
= 10.92 m.

(g=-9.81 m/s²), viy=0)
