The goalkeeper at his goal cannot kick a soccer ball into the opponent’s goal without the ball touching the ground
Explanation:
Consider the vertical motion of ball,
We have equation of motion v = u + at
Initial velocity, u = u sin θ
Final velocity, v = 0 m/s
Acceleration = -g
Substituting
v = u + at
0 = u sin θ - g t
This is the time of flight.
Consider the horizontal motion of ball,
Initial velocity, u = u cos θ
Acceleration, a =0 m/s²
Time,
Substituting
s = ut + 0.5 at²
This is the range.
In this problem
u = 30 m/s
g = 9.81 m/s²
θ = 45° - For maximum range
Substituting
Maximum horizontal distance traveled by ball without touching ground is 45.87 m, which is less than 95 m.
So the goalkeeper at his goal cannot kick a soccer ball into the opponent’s goal without the ball touching the ground
- Force=700N
- Acceleration=9.8m/s^2
