Question

Assuming the ball's initial velocity was 57° above the horizontal and ignoring air resistance, what did the initial speed of the ball need to be to produce such a home run if the ball was hit at a point 0.9 m (3.0 ft) above ground level?
Assume that the ground was perfectly flat. Express your answer using two significant figures. v₀ = ______ m/s
How far would the ball be above a fence 3.0 m (10 ft) high if the fence was 116 m (380 ft) from home plate? Express your answer using two significant figures. h = _______ m

Answer 1

Answer:

V0 = 44.97m/s

Height above fence = 66.67m
