Problem 8: A baseball slugger hits a pitch and watches the ball fly into the bleachers for a
home run, landing h = 5.5 m higher than it was struck. When visiting with the fan that caught the ball,
he learned the ball was moving with final velocity vf= 38.7 m/s at an angle 6f = 33° below horizontal
when caught. Assume the ball encountered no air resistance, and use a Cartesian coordinate system
with the origin located at the ball's initial position.
