Hit Baseball#
A baseball is hit at 16.7\(^\circ\) above the horizontal with a speed of 23.5 \(\rm{m/s}\).
Part 1#
Neglecting air resistance, what is the velocity of the ball the instant before it hits the ground? Let up be the positive \(y\)-direction and the ball be hit to the right, which is the positive \(x\)-direction.
Answer Section#
\(22.5 \, \rm{m/s} \; \hat{x}\)
\(6.75 \, \rm{m/s} \; \hat{y}\)
\(-6.75 \, \rm{m/s} \; \hat{y}\)
\(22.5 \, \rm{m/s} \; \hat{x} \; - \; 6.75 \, \rm{m/s} \; \hat{y}\)
\(22.5 \, \rm{m/s} \; \hat{x} \; + \; 6.75 \, \rm{m/s} \; \hat{y}\)
\(6.75 \, \rm{m/s} \; \hat{x} \; + \; 22.5 \, \rm{m/s} \; \hat{y}\)
\(6.75 \, \rm{m/s} \; \hat{x} \; - \; 22.5 \, \rm{m/s} \; \hat{y}\)
\(0 \rm{m/s}\)
