You kick a soccer ball with a speed of 31 m/s at an angle of 50 degrees. How long does it take the ball to reach the top of its trajectory?

Respuesta :

Answer:

Reaches max height at t = 2.42s.

Explanation:

I've assumed we are neglecting air resistance. If not let me know and I'll update.

We want to examine the behaviour of the ball in the y-direction. In the absence of air resistance the only force acting on the ball is gravity, which produces an acceleration in the negative y direction.
