A batter hits a fly ball which leaves the bat 0.90 m above the ground at an angle of 61° with an initial speed of 28m/s heading toward centerfield. Ignore air resistance.(a) How far from home plate would the ball land if notcaught? (b) The ball is caught by the centerfielder who,starting at a distance of 105 m from home plate just as the ballwas hit, runs straight toward home plate at a constant speedand makes the catch at ground level. Find his speed.

A football player punts the football so that it will have a “hang time” (time of flight) of 4.5 s and land 46 m away. If the ball leaves the player’s foot 150 cm above the ground, what must be the (a) magnitude and (b) angle (relative to the horizontal) of the ball’s initial velocity?
