According to the Guinness Book of World Records, the loingest home run ever measured was hit by Roy "Dizzy" Carlyle in a minor league game, with the ball traveling 188 m (i.e. 618ft) befor landing on the ground outside of the ballpark. Assuming the ball's initial velocity was 45.0 degress abbout the horizontal (ignoring air resistace), what did the initital speeed of the ball need to be to produce such a home run given that the ball was hit at a point 0.900 m (i.e. 3.00ft) about ground level. Assume the ground is flat and explain how the assuumption that the ground is flat is required to complete this calculation.
A baseball is thrown up with intial vertical of 15 m/s. How long will it take for the ball to return to the same spot where it originated?
A projectile is launched from ground level at an angle of 30 degrees above the horizontal. Neglect air resistance and consider the motion from just after the moment it is launched to just before the moment it lands on the ground. At what point do the velocity and the acceleration have the same direction?
