During a baseball game played on a level field (in Fenway Park),
a batter hits a ball at an angle of 40 degrees above the
horizontal. At the instant when the ball loses contact with the
bat, the ball is located 1.00 m above the ground, at a horizontal
distance of 94.5 m from an 11.3 m tall fence, and the ball is
traveling at a speed of 33.0 m/s - as shown in the figure. In the
following, assume that air resistance is negligible and
that g= 9.80m/s^2.
18. How much time would it take the ball to travel a horizontal
distance of 94.5 m?
A. 2.16 s. B. 2.86 s. C. 4.45 s. D. 3.37 s. E. 3.74 s.
19. Which one of the following statements is correct?
A. The ball hits the ground before reaching the fence.
B. The ball hits the fence ~0.2 m below the top of the
fence.
C. The ball passes over the top of the fence ~0.52 m above the
top of the fence.
D. The ball passes over the top of the fence ~1.82 m above the
top of the fence.
E. The ball passes over the top of the fence ~0.82 m above the
top of the fence.
