Question
A tennis ball with mass of 0.16 kg is batted into the air. Its initial speed is 36.3 m/s, directed at an angle 25 degrees above the horizontal. If the height of the ball when it was struck by the racket is 35 cm, how high off the ground (in m) is the ball when it reaches the highest point in its trajectory?
