A football is kicked with a velocity of 18 m/s at an angle of 20°. What is the
ball's acceleration in the horizontal direction as it flies through the air?​

Respuesta :

Explanation:

It is given that,

The velocity of football is 18 m/s

It is projected at an angle of 20 degrees

We need to find the ball's acceleration in the horizontal direction as it flies through the air.

When it is projected with some velocity, it has two rectangular components i.e. horizontal and vertical.

In vertical direction, it will move under the action of gravity. There is no change in velocity in horizontal direction. So, ball's acceleration in the horizontal direction is equal to 0.
