By using the motion equations, we conclude that she will make the goal.
Will she make the goal?
First, we know that the goal is 20ft away, and the position in x is given by:
[tex]x = 28*cos(58)*t[/tex]
Let's find the time in which the ball will travel these 20 ft.
[tex]20 = 28*cos(58)*t[/tex]
[tex](20)/(28*cos(58)) = t = 1.35[/tex]
So the horizontal distance is covered in 1.35 seconds, now let's see which is the height of the ball at that time.
The height equation is:
[tex]y = -16*t^2 +28*sin(58)*t[/tex]
Evaluating in t = 1.35 we get:
[tex]y = -16*(1.35)^2 +28*sin(58)*1.35\\\\y = 2.9[/tex]
And the goal is 5ft tall, so we can conclude that she will make the goal.
