the height is
y = 2.35 + 3.5t - 4.9t^2
The horizontal distance is x = 14t
without knowing the height of the net, or the length of the court, there is no way to answer the questions.
Projectile motion: If a player hits a voley ball 2.35 m from the ground and gives it an initial velocity of Vo= 14 m/s forward and 3.5 m/s upwards.
a) Ignoring air resistance show whether the ball clears the net or not.
b) Similarly, show whether the ball lands inbound on the other side of the court or not.

a. Vo = 14+3.5i = 14.4 m/s.[14o].
Y^2 = Yo^2+2g*h = 0
3.5^2+(-19.6)h = 0
h = 0.625 m. above launching point.
2.35+0.625 = 3 m. above gnd.
The net is app. 2.4 m above gnd.
Range = Vo^2*sin(2A)/g = 14.4^2*sin(28)/9.8 = 9.9 m. = hor. distance.
Therefore, the ball clears the net.
b. 9.9m * 3.3Ft./m = 32.7 Ft.
Distance from net to out-of-bounds line = 30 Ft.
Therefore, the ball does not land inbound.
