A baseball player leads off the game and hits a long home run. The ball leaves the bat at an angle of 30.0° N. of E. with a velocity of 40.0 m/s. Round all answers to 1 decimal place. Assume forward and downward are positive. At initial position: • The horizontal velocity is m/s. • The initial vertical velocity is m/s. At apex position: • The vertical velocity at the apex is m/s. • The horizontal velocity at the apex is m/s. • The ball takes s to travel to the apex position. • The ball travels m to the apex position.

Question
A baseball player leads off the game and hits a long home run. The ball leaves the bat at an angle of 30.0° N. of E. with a velocity of 40.0 m/s. Round all answers to 1
decimal place. Assume forward and downward are positive.
At initial position:
• The horizontal velocity is
m/s.
• The initial vertical velocity is
m/s.
At apex position:
• The vertical velocity at the apex is
m/s.
• The horizontal velocity at the apex is
m/s.
• The ball takes
s to travel to the apex position.
• The ball travels
m to the apex position.
The apex is
m above the ground.
At landing position:
• The horizontal velocity at the landing position is
m/s.
• The vertical velocity at the landing position is
m/s.
• The ball takes
s to travel to the landing position.
• The total horizontal distance the ball travels is
m.
• The ball's vertical displacement is
m.
• The final velocity is
m/s at
degrees, S. of E.
