Reading a book in your warm, comfy seat ... in Row-27 of a
passenger airliner cruising at 450 miles per hour.
Do not worry if you don't recognize both parts of the problem at this point. If you recognize the dynamics problem,<span> On the other hand, if you recognize this as a kinematics problem you will quickly see that you need to find angular acceleration before you can begin and so will need to do that pre-step first.</span>
Well if it was traveling for an hour then the answer is 8 miles.
Answer:(-4,3)
Explanation: They didn’t show the whole graph so it looks confusing but it’s not.
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.
