A football is kicked at an angle of 45° to the horizontal over a defense line up with a velocity of 15ms−1. Calculate the magnitude of the horizontal velocity of the ball at its highest point [Neglect friction, g = 10ms−2].

A. 0.0ms−1 B. 5.6ms−1 C. 10.6ms−1 D. 15.0ms−1 Correct Answer: Option C C. 10.6ms−1 Explanation The horizontal component of velocity, Vx, is unaffected by the acceleration of free fall and remains constant. Vx=Ux=Ucosθ = 15×cos45=15×0.7071...
