[All solutions must start by writing an equation (or equations) from the equation sheet on your paper. The solution must then follow a logical progression from the equation(s) on the equation sheet to the answer(s).] In a baseball game, a batter hits a home run — hurray! The batter hits the ball from an original height of approximately 1.5 meters, at an angle of approximately 62 degrees above the horizontal. The ball bounces off of the top of a 10 meter tall wall that is 115 meters away from the batter. With what total initial speed was the ball hit by the batter, when the ball bounces off of the top 10 meter wall at a horizontal distance of 115 meters from the batter? Hint 1: the top of the wall is *not* 10 meters above the ball’s initial y coordinate. If the origin is centered at the batter’s feet, what are the initial and final coordinates of the baseball? What are the variables we know, don’t know [and don’t care about], and don’t know [and wish to find]? Hint 2: What is the relationship between the components of the velocity vector, and the speed?
