011 (part 1 of 3) 2.0 points A ball of mass 0.4 kg, initially at rest, is kicked directly toward a fence from a point 20 m away, as shown below. The velocity of the ball as it leaves the
kicker’s foot is 17 m/s at angle of 39 ◦ above the horizontal. The top of the fence is 4 m high. The ball hits nothing while in flight and air resistance is negligible. The acceleration due to gravity is 9.8 m/s2.
