Answer:
about 19.6° and 73.2°
Explanation:
The equation for ballistic motion in Cartesian coordinates for some launch angle α can be written ...
y = -4.9(x/s·sec(α))² +x·tan(α)
where s is the launch speed in meters per second.
We want y=2.44 for x=50, so this resolves to a quadratic equation in tan(α):
-13.6111·tan(α)² +50·tan(α) -16.0511 = 0
This has solutions ...
tan(α) = 0.355408 or 3.31806
The corresponding angles are ...
α = 19.5656° or 73.2282°
The elevation angle must lie between 19.6° and 73.2° for the ball to score a goal.

I find it convenient to use a graphing calculator to find solutions for problems of this sort. In the attachment, we have used x as the angle in degrees, and written the function so that x-intercepts are the solutions.
Answer:
Explanation:
Given an RL circuit
A voltage source of.
V = 108V
A resistor of resistance
R = 1.1-kΩ = 1100 Ω
And inductor of inductance
L = 34 H
After he inductance has been fully charged, the switch is open and it connected to the resistor in their own circuit, so as to discharge the inductor
A. Time the inductor current will reduce to 12% of it's initial current
Let the initial charge current be Io
Then, final current is
I = 12% of Io
I = 0.12Io
I / Io = 0.12
The current in an inductor RL circuit is given as
I = Io ( 1—exp(-t/τ)
Where τ is time constant and it is given as
τ = L/R = 34/1100 = 0.03091A
So,
I = Io ( 1—exp(-t/τ))
I / Io = ( 1—exp(-t/τ))
Where I/Io = 0.12
0.12 = 1—exp(-t/τ)
0.12 — 1 = —exp(-t/τ)
-0.88 = -exp(-t/0.03091)
0.88 = exp(-t/0.03091)
Take In of both sides
In(0.88) = In(exp(-t/0.03091)
-0.12783 = -t/0.030901
t = -0.12783 × 0.030901
t = 3.95 × 10^-3 seconds
t = 3.95 ms
B. Energy stored in inductor is given as
U = ½Li²
So, the current at this time t = 3.95ms
I = Io ( 1—exp(-t/τ))
Where Io = V/R
Io = 108/1100 = 0.0982 A
Now,
I = Io ( 1—exp(-t/τ))
I = 0.0982(1 — exp(-3.95 × 10^-3 / 0.030901))
I = 0.0982(1—exp(-0.12783)
I = 0.0982 × 0.12
I = 0.01178
I = 11.78mA
Therefore,
U = ½Li²
U = ½ × 34 × 0.01178²
U = 2.36 × 10^-3 J
U = 2.36 mJ
