12-90. Show that the girl at A can throw the ball to the boy at B by launching it at equal angles measured up or down from a 45° inclination. If va = 10 m/s, determine the range R if this value is 15°, i.e., 6, = 45° – 15° = 30° and 02 = 45° + 15° = 60°. Assume the ball is caught at the same elevation from which it is thrown. VA = 10 m/s A B -R
A football kicker can give the ball an initial speed of 25.0 m/s. What are the (a) least and (b) greatest elevation angles at which he can kick the ball to score a field goal from a point 50.0 m in front of goalposts whose horizontal bar is 3.44 m above the ground? When doing this, you may want to research some trig identities to get a formula involving only tangent functions. Also, since there are two values of angle that will work, maybe the quadratic formula is involved.
