A baseball is hit so that it travels straight upward after being struck by the bat. If its initial velocity is 29 m/s , then what is the maximum height that it will reach?

Respuesta :

Answer:

Explanation:

Use kinematic equation v² = u² + 2as

Rearrange for distance

s = (v² - u²) / 2a

Realize that at the top of its flight, the ball has zero velocity and gravity is acting downward in an assumed upward positive reference frame.

s = (0² - 29²) / (2(-9.8))

s = 42.90816...

s = 43 m
