A ball is kicked so that it acquires an initial velocity of 5ms^(-1) at an angle of 45 degrees to the horizontal.
What height will it reach?
How long will it take before the ball hits the ground?
How far will it travel horizontally before it hits the ground?
i) for the height I used the vertical component and got s=0.63
ii) I know I'd have to consider the horizontal component but would that mean s=0.63 x2 assuming the flight path is symmetrical, and then use s=ut to find the time ?
iii) Once I calculate the time from ii) I can sub it into s=ut +1/2at^2 ?
