A golfer strikes a golf ball and gives it a velocity of 42.0ms-1 at an angle of 36.9 the horizontal?
By considering the vertical components of velocity calculate the maximum height reached by the ball?
Calculate the time of flight (time to reach ground again)?
Calculate the horizontal distance travelled by the ball in this time?
solve this gain maximum height reached by ball and the time of flight considering AIR RESISTANCE ?
thanks guys

What have you tried?
You can use trigonometry to get vertical/horizontal components and suvat equations for time, displacement, etc.

yes i have worked that out and for the vertical i got 42 sin 36.9=25
and for the horizontal 42cos36.9=35
