Question

An Americanootball players is on the 10 yard line and runs at a constant speed of 8 yard/ second toward center field for 4.5 seconds and stops. what yard line is he on ??

Answer 1

Answer:

Gameplay in American football consists of a series of downs, individual plays of short duration, outside of which the ball is dead or not in play. These can be plays from scrimmage – passes, runs, punts, or field goal attempts (from either a place kick or a drop kick) – or free kicks such as kickoffs and fair catch kicks. Substitutions can be made between downs, which allows for a great deal of specialization as coaches choose the players best suited for each particular situation. During a play, each team should have no more than 11 players on the field, and each of them has specific tasks assigned for that specific play.

Answer 2

The yard line distance is 46 yards.

Given:

An American football player is on the 10-yard line and runs at a constant speed of 8 yards/per second toward the center field for 4.5 seconds.

To Find:

The yard line distance.

Solution:

To find the distance of the yard line on which players are we will follow the following steps:

As we know,

$distance = speed \times time$

Now,

According to the question:

Speed = 8 yards/sec

Time = 4.5 sec

On putting values in the above formula we get,

$distance = 8 \times 4.5 = 36yard$

He has already traveled a distance of 10 yards.

So,

His distance of yard line = 36 + 10 = 46 yards.

Henceforth, the yard line distance is 46 yards.
