Anuja hit a golf ball on a level field at 70 degrees and 40 degrees with the same total speed as shown below.
70°
40°
Which launch angle causes the ball to be in the air for the longest time?
o not enough information
40 degrees
70 degress
times are the same

Answer :

Answer:

At 40 deg  Vy = V sin 40

at 70 deg Vy = V sin 70

So the ball launched at 70 deg has the greatest vertical velocity and will remain in the air the longest:

Since t = Vy / g    time for to reach zero vertical velocity and also the time for the ball to reach velocity Vy on the downward path
