The problem involves a baseball hit at a speed of 45 m/s at a 45-degree angle, focusing on determining the time it remains in the air and the horizontal distance it travels. This falls under the subject area of projectile motion.
Some participants have provided equations and calculations related to the problem, while others express uncertainty about the correctness of these approaches. There is an acknowledgment of the equations being used, but no consensus on their application has been reached.
The original poster requests hints or formulas, indicating a need for guidance without direct solutions. The discussion reflects a collaborative effort to clarify the problem setup and relevant equations.
on this problem any hints (formulas) to help me solve this problem would be appreciated. Thanks in advance
am I wrong?TheSilence said:So I need to find the time and range of the projectile.
[tex]V_0x[/tex]= 45m/s cos(45)
[tex]V_0y[/tex]=45m/s sin(45)
and Range is: [tex]R = 2{V_0x}{V_oy}/{g}[/tex]
Time is: [tex]t = {2V_0y}/{g}[/tex]
