I have some test questions that I got wrong that I need to know how to solve for the final. Any help would be appreciated.
1)A place kicker must kick a football from a point 33.5 m from the goal, and the ball must clear the crossbar, which is 3.05 m high. When kicked, the ball leaves the ground with a speed of 19.5 m/s at an angle of 38.0° to the horizontal.
a)By how much does the ball clear or fall short of clearing the crossbar? (Enter a positive value for clearance and a negative value for falling short.)
Do I use the equation Ymax=Voy^2/2a ? Because the correct answer should be -0.19 m
b)What is the y-component of the ball's velocity as it reaches the crossbar?
I figure I use Vf = Vi +a(2*distance)/(Vf +Vi) but I don’t know how to get distance from the first part to do this. The correct answer should be -9.38 m/s
2) A ball is projected horizontally from the edge of a table that is 1.08 m high, and it strikes the floor at a point 1.24 m from the base of the table.
a)What is the initial speed of the ball? 2.64 m/s
b)How high is the ball above the floor when its velocity vector makes a 47.6° angle with the horizontal?
6.53×10-1 m
I got part a) right by using t=sqRoot(2h/g) and d/t=v but I have no idea what to do with part b!
3) One of the fastest recorded pitches in major-league baseball, thrown by Nolan Ryan in 1974, was clocked at 100.8 mi/hr. If a pitch were thrown horizontally with this velocity, how far would the ball fall vertically by the time it reached a horizontal distance of 65.0 ft? (Neglect air resistance.)
9.49×10-1 m
I found time using the Kinematics equations then plugged it into y=.5at^2 but that doesn’t seem to work.
