Question
As an aid in working this problem, consult Interactive Solution 3.41. A soccer player kicks the ball toward a goal that is 25.0 m in front of him. The ball leaves his foot at a speed of 16.2 m/s and an angle of 38.0 ° above the ground. Find the speed of the ball when the goalie catches it in front of the net.

Answer:
15.77m/s
Explanation:
the information we have is:
initial velocity
distance:
angle:
°
first we need to break down the velocity into its x and y components:
initial velocity in x (the velocity in x is constant):
and initial velocity in y (the velocity in y is not constant due to acceleration of gravity):
and now we find the time that the ball was in the air:
and with this time, we find the y component of the volicity at time 1.96s:
finally, to find the final velocity we use pythagoras:
