The second question please
When a field goal kicker kicks a football as hard as he can at 44.4? to the horizontal, the ball just clears the 3.00?m high crossbar of the goalposts 46.4m away. What is the maximum speed the kicker can impart to the football? In addition to clearing the crossbar, the football must be high enough in the air early during its flight to clear the reach of the onrushing defensive lineman. If a lineman with a vertical reach of 2.40m wants to block the 46.4?m field goal attempt kicked at an initial velocity determined above, what is the farthest distance he can be away from the kicker when he jumps?
