Question
Solve the problem. Unless stated otherwise, assume that the projectile flight is ideal, that the
launch angle is measured from the horizontal, and that the projectile is launched from the origin
over a horizontal surface
A baseball is hit when it is 2.8 ft above the ground. It leaves the bat with an initial velocity of
149 ft/sec at a launch angle of 24°. At the instant the ball is hit, an instantaneous gust of wind blows
against the ball, adding a component of -9.7i (ft/sec) to the ball's initial velocity. Find a vector
equation for the path of the baseball.
