Suppose sammy sosa hits a home run which travels 361. ft (110. m). leaving the bat at 50 degrees above the horizontal, how high did it travel?

The horizontal distance of Sosa is 276.526 ft or 84.28 meter.

Explanation:

As shown in the figure, let point O is the starting point of Sosa. She travels 361 ft at an angle 50 degree with the horizontal.

sin 50 =

0.7660 = h / 361

h = 276.526 ft

h = 84.28 meter

The horizontal distance of Sosa is 276.526 ft or 84.28 meter.

here we know that ball will drop down by total distance 3.2 m

so here we know that

now using kinematics

now in the same time it will cover horizontal distance of 0.75 m

so speed of the ball will be
