A football is kicked straight up in the air , it hits the ground 5.6 s later. What was the greatest height kicked reached by the ball? Assume it was kicked at ground level.

We'll just consider the down trip, from when it was at its highest point to when it hits the ground.  Initial velocity is 0 m/s, acceleration is 9.81 m/s^2 (gravity), and time is 5.6s.

One of the kinematic equations is d = (Vi)(t) + 0.5(a)(t^2).
Plugging it in gives us d = 0 + (0.5)(9.81)(5.6^2) = 153.8208 m.

Hope this helped!

Answer: 38.5 m

Explanation:

1) Flight time = 5.6 s (given)

2) Ascending time = fligth time / 2 = 5.6s / 2 = 2.8 s

3) Vf = Vo - gt

Hmax ⇒ Vf = 0

⇒ 0 = Vo - gt ⇒ Vo = gt = 9.81m/s² (2.8s) = 27.5 m/s

4) H = Vot - gt² / 2

⇒ H = 27.5m/s(2.8s) - 9.81m/s² (2.8s)² / 2 = 77m - 38.5m = 38.5m

Answer: 38.5m
