A rugby player kicks the ball up high to the fields and chases. The ball is kicked at 60° to the horizontal with a velocity of 12 m/s. Calculate: The travel distance of the ball from the foot to the point where the ball hit the ground assumes the ball is kicked 1.5 m high from the ground. The average velocity (speed) of the rugby player to reach the ball when it hits the ground. A worker is pulling a package using a rope. The angle between the rope and the horizontal axis is 50°. The travel distance is 20 m. The pulling force is measured at about 0.7 kN. Neglect the friction of force. Calculate the work done from this activity?
