A soccer ball is kicked from the ground ...

A soccer ball is kicked from the ground with an initial speed of 21.3 m/s at an upward angle of `45^(@)`. A player 55 m away in the direction of the kick starts running to meet the ball at that instant. What must be his average speed if he is to meet the ball just before it hits the ground?

A foot ball is kicked off with an initial speed of 19.6m//s to have maximum range. Goal keeper standing on the goal line 67.4 m away in the direction of the kick starts running opposite to the direction of kick to meet the ball at that instant. What must his speed be if he is to catch the ball before it hits the ground?

A football is kicked with speed 20 ms^(-1) at a projection angle of 45^@ from the ground. A receiver on the goal line 20 m away in the disrection of the kich runs the same instant to meet the ball. What must he his speed, of he is to catch the ball cefore it hits the ground ? Take g= 10 ms^(-2) .

  • A player kicks a ball at a speed of 20ms^(-1) so that its horizontal range is maximum. Another players 24m away in the direction of kick starts running in the same direction at the same instant of hit. If he has to catch the ball just before it reaches the ground, he should run with a velocity equl to (take g=10ms^(-2))
