Problem#2:
A.)
A player throws a baseball upward with an initial velocity of 30 fps and
catches it with a baseball glove. When will the ball strike the glove? What is
the highest point? What will be the final velocity as it strikes the glove? Assume
that the glove is positioned in the same elevation when the ball left his hand.
B.)
A stone is thrown upward from the top of the building at an angle of 30°
with the horizontal and an initial velocity of 20 m/s. If the height of the
building is 45 m, how long will the stone be in flight? What is the total
horizontal distance traveled by the stone?
