A baseball is batted. It's a long fly ball. 4 seconds later the ball reaches the outfield 100 meters away and returns to the height from which it left the bat. Determine the horizontal component of the ball's initial velocity in magnitude, in m/s,

Answer:

25 m/s

Explanation:

First we should define the variables

T=4

Dx = 100

ay=-9.8

ax=0

We can use formula 1 from the BIG 5

x=(v+v0)t/2

By plugging in our variables we can get 100=4(v+v0)/2

Which is 50=v+v0

v=v0 since horizontal acceleration always equals zero

so 2v0 = 50

v0 = 25
