Algebra.Com's Answer #790582 by Alan3354(69443)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! a football is kicked (in a vacuum) with an initial velocity of 7m/s at an angle of 35 degrees from the ground. How much time will the ball spend in flight? \n" ); document.write( "------------ \n" ); document.write( "The vertical component of the speed is 7*sin(35) \n" ); document.write( "---- \n" ); document.write( "Using h(t) = -4.9t^2 + v0*t = -4.9t^2 + 7*sin(35)t meters \n" ); document.write( "It's a parabola, and the max height is the vertex, at t = -b/2a \n" ); document.write( "t = 7*sin(35)/9.8 = sin(35)/1.4 seconds \n" ); document.write( "The time descending = time ascending \n" ); document.write( "Total flight time = sin(35)/0.7 =~ 0.8194 seconds \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
