A golfer hits a golf ball with a velocity of 36.0 meters/second at an angle of28.0°. if the hang time of the golf ball is 3.44 seconds, what is the range ofthe golf ball?

Respuesta :

The range of a projectile is the maximum horizontal distance between the point of origin to the end point. It can be calculated through the equation,
                 range = v²sin2θ/g
where v is the initial velocity, θ is the angle, and g is the gravitational constant. 
Substituting the known values,
                 range = (36 m/s)² x (sin2(28°)) / 9.8 m/s²
                 range = 109.64 m
Thus, the range of the golf ball is approximately 109.64 m.
