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?

Expert Solution

c) The time of flight is,

t = 2v_osin/g = 2*12*sin9.95^o/9.81

= 0.4226 s.

I hope you understood the problem and got your answers, If yes rate me!! or else comment for a better solutions

A 110-kg rugby player is sliding on a muddy field at a speed of 2 m/s...

A 110-kg rugby player is sliding on a muddy field at a speed of 2 m/s toward the right as a 82-kg player is slipping at a speed of 3 m/s toward the left. As the two players collide, they grab onto each other and slide away together as one. What kind of collision was this? Set up the conservation of linear momentum for this collision, and determine the shared velocity (magnitude & direction) of the players immediately after the...

A (field) hockey player is running north at a speed of 8 m⋅s−1. A ball is coming directly towards her from the north at a speed of 18 m⋅s−1. She swings her stick forward, directly north, at a speed of 6 m⋅s−1 measured in her own frame of reference. What is the speed of the ball with respect to the hockey stick? Relative to the hockey stick, the ball is travelling at ____ m⋅s−1. Jane's brother Andrew leaves home for...

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.) I keep getting a final velocity of 13.92797m/s but its incorrect. Please show your work so I can see what I'm...

During a tennis match, a player serves the ball at 28.6 m/s, with the center of the ball leaving the racquet horizontally 2.33 m above the court surface. The net is 12.0 m away and 0.900 m high. When the ball reaches the net, (a) what is the distance between the center of the ball and the top of the net? (b) Suppose that, instead, the ball is served as before but now it leaves the racquet at 5.00° below...

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 +...

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...
