A placekicker is about to kick a field goal. The ball is 25.3 m
from the goalpost. The ball is kicked with an initial velocity of
20.8 m/s at an angle θ above the ground. Between what two
angles, θ1 and θ2, will the
ball clear the 2.86-m-high crossbar? Give your answers as
(a) the smaller angle and (b) the
larger angle. (Hint: The following trigonometric identities may
be useful:
sec θ = 1/(cos θ) and
sec2θ = 1 + tan2θ.)
Please help, I don't understand how to answer this question.

A placekicker must kick a football from a point 36.0 m (about
40 yards) from the goal. Half the crowd hopes the ball will clear
the crossbar, which is 3.05 m high. When kicked, the ball leaves
the ground with a speed of 21.7 m/s at an angle of 48.5° to the
horizontal.
(a) By how much does the ball clear or fall short of clearing
the crossbar?
(b) Does the ball approach the crossbar while still rising or
while...

Activity 1: How far can a soccer player kick a soccer ball down
field? Through the application of a linear function and a quadratic
function and ignoring wind and air resistance one can describe the
path of a soccer ball. These functions depend on two elements that
are within the control of the player: velocity of the kick (v k )
and angle of the kick (?). A skilled high school soccer player can
kick a soccer ball at speeds...

A soccer player kicks the ball toward a goal that is 25.0 m in
front of him. The ball leaves his foot at a speed of 17.0 m/s and
an angle of 36.0 ° above the ground. Find the speed of the ball
when the goalie catches it in front of the net.

A soccer player kicks the ball toward a goal that is 27.6 m in
front of him. The ball leaves his foot at a speed of 18.5 m/s and
an angle of 31.2° above the ground. Find the speed of the ball when
the goalie catches it in front of the net. (Note: The answer is not
18.5 m/s.)

A rugby player passes the ball 5 m across the field, where it
is captured at the same height when it left his hand. a) At what
angle was the ball thrown if the initial velocity was 12m / s? b)
What other angle gives the same range and say why it should not be
used? How long did this pass take?

In
a football match, a player takes a free kick against the opponent's
team's goal. The ball is placed at 25. 0 m in front of one of the
goal posts and the player kicks the ball at an angle of 60. 0 °
with respect to the horizontal grass. If the goal has a height of
2. 3m, what speed should the ball print to make the goal from all
the angle of the goal?
