Simulation 2: Putting Uphill

Please wait for the animation to completely load.

A golf ball is putted up a steep hill on a green.  A side view is shown in the animation (position is given in meters and time is given in seconds). The positive x direction is defined to be parallel to the hill and down the hill. 

• Worksheet: What should the minimum initial velocity of the ball be in order to make it into the hole located at x = -3.6 m? (Show all work and explain all procedures fully.)
