A golf ball is hit with an initial angle of 38.5° with respect to the horizontal and an initial velocity of 81.5 mph. It lands a distance of 86.8 m away from where it was hit. By how much did the effects of wind resistance, spin, and so forth reduce the range of the golf ball from the ideal value?

A golf ball is hit with an initial velocity of 65 m/s at an angle of 36 degrees above the horizontal. How far does it travel?(horizontal distance)(g = 9.8 m/s2)

A golf ball is struck with a five iron on ground level. It lands 93.5 m away 4.78 s later. What was the directon of the initial velocity? Give the angle counterclockwise relative to the horizontal.

A woman throws a ball at a vertical wall d = 4.6 m away. Theball is h = 2.3 m above ground when it leaves the woman's hand withan initial velocity of 19 m/s at 45°. When the ball hits the wall,the horizontal component of its velocity is reversed; the verticalcomponent remains unchanged. (Ignore any effects due to airresistance.)
