A ball player hits a home run, and the baseball just clears a wall 17.3 m high located 131.0 m from home plate. The ball is hit an an angle of 35° to the horizontal, and air resistance is negligible. Assume the ball is hit at a height of 1.0 m above the ground.
(a) What is the initial speed?
m/s
(b) How much time does it take for the ball to reach the wall?
s
(c) Find the components of the velocity and the speed of the ball when it reaches the wall
vy,f = m/s
vx,f = m/s
vf = m/s
