1. A ball is kicked with an elevation angle of 37 ° and an initial speed of 10 m / s.

Determine the speed of the ball after 0.2 seconds! (cos 37˚ =4/5, sin 37˚ =3/5)
Given:
ɵ = 37⁰
v0 = 10 m/s
Asked: v => t = 0.2 s
Solution:
4
𝑣𝑥 = 𝑣0 𝑐𝑜𝑠𝜃 = 10 cos 37 = 10 × 5 = 8 𝑚/𝑠
3
𝑣𝑦 = 𝑣0 𝑠𝑖𝑛𝜃 − 𝑔𝑡 = 10 sin 37 − 10 × 0.2 = 10 × − 2 = 6 − 2 = 4 𝑚/𝑠

𝑣= √𝑣𝑥2 + 𝑣𝑦2
𝑣 = √82 + 42
𝑣 = √64 + 16
𝑣 = √80 = 8.9 𝑚/𝑠
