Question

A golf ball is struck at ground level. The speed of the golf ball as a function of the time is shown in the figure, where t = 0 at the instant the ball is struck. The scaling on the vertical axis is set by va= 20 m/s and vb= 31.6 m/s. (a) How far does the golf ball travel horizontally before returning to ground level? (b) What is the maximum height above ground level attained by the ball?

A golf ball is struck at ground level. The speed of the golf ball as a function of the time is shown in Fig. 4-27, where $t=0$ at the instant the ball is struck. The scaling on the vertical axis is set by $v_{a}=19 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}$ and $v_{b}=31 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}$. (a) How far does the golf ball travel horizontally before returning to ground level? (b) What is the maximum height above ground level attained by the ball?
