At Boston's Fenway Park, it is 310 feet (94.5 m) from homeplate to the left field wall The Green Monster which is 30 feet (9.2 m) high. If a batter hits a baseball at an initial height of 0.9 m, given the following velocities, does it clear the wall, hit the wall, or fall short?
a. vx = 25 m/s, vyo = 25 m/s
[h = 25.32 m, clears]
b. vx = 25 m/s, vyo = 20.5 m/s
[h = 8.31 m, hits wall]
c.
vx = 16 m/s, vyo = 28 m/s [h = -4.83 m, falls short]
d. vx = 14.1 m/s, vyo = 47 m/s
[h = 95.61 m, clears]
