Question

During a baseball game, a baseball is struck at ground level by a batter. The ball leaves the baseball bat with an initial velocity v0 = 38 m/s at an angle θ = 41° above horizontal. Let the origin of the Cartesian coordinate system be the ball's position the instant it leaves the bat. Air resistance may be ignored throughout this problem.Calculate the horizontal distance xmax in meters the ball has traveled when it returns to ground level.

Answer 1

Answer:

145.8m

Explanation:

The toss distance is given by:

$x=v_0^2*\frac{sin(2\phi)}{g} ,(g=9.8m/s^2)$
