Special Equations in Symmetrical Launches
5. Projectile Motion / Special Equations in Symmetrical Launches / Problem 1
During a football game, a player kicks the ball, initially at rest, creating a high arc across the field. Observations reveal that the total time the ball remains airborne from kick to landing is 4.5 seconds. Calculate the maximum height the ball reaches, using its total time of flight.
