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:
He can return to the spacecraft by sacrificing some of the tools employing the principle of conservation of momentum.
Explanation:
By carefully evaluating his direction back to the ship, the astronaut can throw some of his tools in the opposite direction to that. On throwing those tools of a certain mass, they travel at a certain velocity giving him velocity in the form of recoil in the opposite direction of the velocity of the tools. This is same as a gun and bullet recoil momentum conservation. It is also the principle on which the operational principles of their maneuvering unit is designed.
