A ball is thrown in the air from player A to player B. When player A throws the ball, player B is 18 m away from player A and runs away from player A with an average velocity of 7 m/s for 1.5 seconds. Unfortunately, player B ends up being 3 m short of where the ball should be caught. A) Draw and label a diagram of the physical situation (include the trajectory). B) Determine the horizontal distance that the ball travels . C) Determine the initial velocity that the ball was thrown with. D) Determine the average velocity that player B should be in order to catch the ball

A 70.0 kg football player leaps straight up into the air (with no horizontal velocity) to catch a pass. He catches the 0.430 kg ball precisely at the peak of his jump, when he is 15.2 inches off the ground. He hits the ground 1.11 inches away from where he leapt. If the ball was moving horizontally when it was caught, how fast was the ball travelling?
