On a level football field a football is projected from ground level. It has speed 8.0 m/s when it is at its maximum height. It travels a horizontal distance of 70.0 m. Neglect air resistance. How long is the ball in the air?
Given that the football has a speed of 8m/s when it is at maximum height.
At maximum height vertical velocity becomes zero
So horizontal velocity,
Horizontal distance traveled by the football,
Find the time of flight
=======================
Consider the horizontal motion of the football
There is no acceleration in horzontal direction, so horizontal velocity remains constant.
Horizontal velocity = Horizontal Distance/Time of flight
