Question
O A soccer player kicks a ball, while imparting spin to bend it. The ball starts on the
ground and is kicked with an initial velocity of 15 m/s, at an angle of elevation 30
degrees. Assume the ball was kicked north and the spin creates a constant
acceleration a to the west, which is what makes the ball follow a curved path. If the
ball lands 8 meters west of the starting point, what is the value of a? Assume the
standard value of g = 9.8 m/s².
