Parametric Graphing
Graph the parametric equations describing the path of a ball kicked at an angle (
q
) of 60
¡
with an initial velocity (v
0
) of 15 meters/sec. The gravity constant g = 9.8 meters/sec
2
.
Ignoring air resistance and other drag forces, what is the maximum height of the ball and
when does it hit the ground?
