Sagot :

By using the motion equations, we conclude that she will make the goal.

Will she make the goal?

First, we know that the goal is 20ft away, and the position in x is given by:

[tex]x = 28*cos(58)*t[/tex]

Let's find the time in which the ball will travel these 20 ft.

[tex]20 = 28*cos(58)*t[/tex]

[tex](20)/(28*cos(58)) = t = 1.35[/tex]

So the horizontal distance is covered in 1.35 seconds, now let's see which is the height of the ball at that time.

The height equation is:

[tex]y = -16*t^2 +28*sin(58)*t[/tex]

Evaluating in t = 1.35 we get:

[tex]y = -16*(1.35)^2 +28*sin(58)*1.35\\\\y = 2.9[/tex]

And the goal is 5ft tall, so we can conclude that she will make the goal.
