The flight of a football |
2020-05-06 |
|
From Michael:
Football is thrown from a 10-yard line. It reaches its highest height of 20 yards. It lands on the 50-yard line after 2 seconds. What is the equation of the parabola that models this throw? I really need help as I've been on this for the longest amount of time.

The flight of a ping pong ball |
2015-10-13 |

From Abigail:
Hello,
Wondering if there is a way to figure out the quadratic equation of half of a parabola?
Doing an assignment about finding quadratic equations for separate bounces of a ping pong ball, but the first bounce is incomplete (as the ball has presumably been dropped, hit the ground and then went on to make a complete bounce).
Please see attachment for references to the diagram that I am using.
Not sure whether I would have to look at it from a different perspective.
Thanks,
Abi
