A kicker punts a football from the very center of the field to the sideline 49 yards downfield. ( a football field is 53 yards wide)

(a) What is the magnitude of the net displacement of the ball? (the answer is in yards)

(b) what is the angle between the direction if the net displacement of the ball and the 50-yard line of the field? (answer is deltha = degrees towards the endzone)

A football kicker is practicing a field goal ick. THe football (on the ground before it starts) has a initial velocity of 24 m/s at an angle of 40 degrees above the horizontal. The ball flies between two goal posts and hits the right cross bar. The cross bar is 10 ft above the ground.

You know that your kicker can make a field goal from 60 yards away, provided there is no air or wind resistance. This kick is 55 yards away, but there is wind which you expect will give the ball an acceleration in the x-direction of -.3 m/s2 . The coach (who besides knowing a lot about football is very knowledgeable about physics) wants to know if you should go for the kick or not, and your reasoning. What should you...

To win the game, a place kicker must kick a football from a point 45 m (49.212 yd) from the goal, and the ball must clear the crossbar, which is 3.05 m high. When kicked, the ball leaves the ground with a speed of 24 m/s at an angle of 32.6 ◦ from the horizontal. The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s 2 . By how much vertical distance does the ball clear the crossbar? Answer in units of m.

Data from the National Football League (NFL) from a recent season reported the number of yards gained by each of the league's wide receivers. The data in this Excel file nfl_receiver_yds_webassign shows the yards gained by each wide receiver in the NFL who gained 50 or more yards during the season. The number of yards gained is right-skewed and therefore a normal model is NOT a good model for the data. However, the square root of the number of yards...
