Astudent throws a baseball upwards at an angle of 60 degrees to the horizontal. the initial horizontal and vertical components are 12.5 m/s and 21.7 m/s, respectively.

Given data

ball throws upwards at an angle 60°

Horizontal component (Vh) = 12.5 m/s,

Vertical component (Vv) = 21.7 m/s ,

The magnitude of throw/resultant velocity (V) = ?

The resultant velocity /the velocity with which ball is throws is determined by the following equation

                                   V = √[(Vh)² + (Vv)²]

                                       = √[(12.5)² + (21.7)²]

                                      = 25.04 m/s

                The resultant velocity or the velocity with which the ball is thrown is 25 m/s

50 inches should be the resultant vector
