Question

g.) what is the maximum height of the ball rounded to one decimal place?
h.) when does the ball reach its maximum height?
i.) graph the path of the football on the graph provided.
the football clear a goal post that is 18.6 feet? explain.

Explanation:

Step1: Identify given values

We are given that the maximum height of the ball is 64.0 feet (answer to part g) and it reaches the maximum height at 2 seconds (answer to part h).

Step2: Graph - mark key points

On the provided graph, mark the point (2, 64.0) which represents the time (x - axis) when the ball reaches its maximum height (y - axis). Then, assuming a parabolic path for the ball's motion (common for projectile motion), sketch a smooth curve that starts from the ground (y = 0) at some initial time (x > 0), rises to the point (2, 64.0) and then falls back to the ground at a later time (x > 2).

Answer:

The graph should have a point marked at (2, 64.0) and a smooth parabolic - like curve representing the ball's path.
