Answer:
[tex]\large \boxed{\sf \ \ v_0=32 \ \ }[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Hello,
The equation is
[tex]y=f(x)=-16x^2+v_0 \cdot x[/tex]
The ball hits the ground 2 seconds after the player kicks it, it means that f(2)=0.
We need to find [tex]v_0[/tex] such that f(2)=0.
[tex]f(2)=-16\cdot 2^2+v_0 \cdot 2=-64+2v_0=0\\\\\text{*** add 64 to both sides ***}\\\\2v_0=64\\\\\text{*** divide by 2 both sides ***} \\\\v_0=\dfrac{64}{2}=32[/tex]
Hope this helps.
Do not hesitate if you need further explanation.
Thank you
