A soccer ball kicked on a level field has an initial vertical velocity component of 15.0 meters per second. Assuming the ball lands at the same height from which it was kicked, what is the total time the ball is in the air?

So the problem ask to find and calculate the total time the ball is in the air if the ball is kicked on a level field with an initial vertical velocity component of 15 metes and the total time would be 3.06 seconds. I hope you are satisfied with my answer and feel free to ask for more if you have questions and further clarifications 

Answer:

The total time the ball is in the air = 3.06 seconds

Explanation:

Considering vertical motion of ball:-

Initial velocity, u =  15 m/s

Acceleration , a = -9.81 m/s²

Displacement, s = 0 m

We have equation of motion s= ut + 0.5 at²

Substituting

   s= ut + 0.5 at²

    0 = 15 x t + 0.5 x -9.81 x t²

    4.905t = 15

       t = 3.06 s

The total time the ball is in the air = 3.06 seconds
