question mark

A football player punts the football so that it will have a hang time (time of flight) of 4.50 s and land 50 yd (= 45.7 m) away. If the ball leaves the player's foot 5.0 ft (= 1.52 m) above the ground, what is its initial velocity (magnitude and direction)?

Therefore, the horizontal component of initial velocity of the football is 10.2 m/s.

Therefore, the vertical component of initial velocity of the football is 22.1 m/s.

Therefore the magnitude of initial velocity of the football is 24.3 m/s.

Therefore, the angle between the initial velocity vector of football and the horizontal is 65.2°.
