During a baseball game, a baseball is struck, at ground level,
by a batter. The ball leaves the baseball bat with an initial
speed v0=37.7m/sv0=37.7m/s at an
angle θ=39.5∘θ=39.5∘ above the horizontal. Let the origin
of the Cartesian coordinate system be the ball's position the
instant it leaves the bat. Ignore air resistance throughout this
problem.
20% Part (a) Express the
magnitude of the ball’s initial horizontal velocity
component, v0,xv0,x, in terms
of v0v0 and θθ.
20% Part
(b) Express the magnitude of the ball’s initial
vertical velocity component, v0,yv0,y, in terms
of v0v0 and θθ.

(c) Find the ball’s maximum vertical
height, hmaxhmax, in meters, above the ground.
