Well, basically because the observations can help you out during the experiment.
Answer:
At the point when it reaches its maximum height (answer C)
Explanation:
As soon as the ball leaves the bat is has not only horizontal component of the velocity, but also vertical, which allows it travel upwards in its trajectory.
When it reaches its maximum elevation, and the trajectory starts curving down, is when the velocity of the baseball is just horizontal (the vertical component has been reduced to zero due to the constant action of the acceleration of gravity which was slowing down it ascending pattern.
After that point, the ball starts gaining now vertical velocity being accelerated towards the center of the Earth due to gravity. At the maximum height of its path is when the vertical component of the velocity switches from positive (pointing up) to negative (pointing down) going through zero magnitude.
Distance = rate x time. Your rate is 2.5 meters per second and your time is 45 minutes. So d=2.5 x 45. Your distance is 112.5 meters.
