A place kicker must kick a football from a point 36.0m (about 40 yards) from the goal, and half the crowd hopes the ball will clear the crossbar, which is 3.05m high. When kicked, the ball leaves the ground with a speed of 20.0m/s at an angle of 53o to the horizontal. a) By how much does the ball clear or fall short of clearing the crossbar? b) Does the ball approach the crossbar while still rising or while falling?

Professional golfers can drive the ball over 200 m. While air resistance is significant, its effects are nearly canceled because lift is gained from backspin on the ball, and so a reasonable description of the ball’s trajectory is obtained if air resistance is neglected. Suppose a golfer hits a ball 200 m on level ground, giving it an initial velocity at an angle of 45o. The duration of the impact of the club and ball has been measured to be 1.00 ms. a) Calculate the velocity of the ball just after it is struck b) What is the 0.0450 kg ball's change in momentum?
A baseball player hits a ball 1.1m above the plate at an angle of 42 degrees at a speed of 35 m/s.

(find its vertical position at the appropriate time) d) what is the ball's speed and direction, as it reaches the wall?
