fiziks09 said:I resolved the vector into its components and the y component was 9.02
I calculated time to reach maximun height using t = 9.02/9.8 = 0.92
and then the whole time of flight was = 2*0.92 = 1.8s.
please is this correct?? did i do the right thing here?? thanks
The angle of the kick affects the horizontal and vertical components of the ball's velocity. A kick at a higher angle will result in a longer vertical distance but a shorter horizontal distance, while a lower angle kick will result in a shorter vertical distance but a longer horizontal distance.
The trajectory of a kicked ball is affected by the initial velocity, angle of kick, air resistance, and gravitational force. These factors can be manipulated to change the path of the ball.
The mass of the ball does not affect its projectile motion, as long as the ball is kicked with the same force. According to Newton's Second Law of Motion, the mass of an object does not affect its motion unless an external force is applied.
No, air resistance should be taken into account in projectile motion calculations. However, for objects with small surface areas and short distances, the effects of air resistance may be negligible.
The maximum height reached by a kicked ball depends on the initial velocity and angle of kick. The highest point of the ball's trajectory is reached when the vertical component of its velocity is equal to zero.
