Answer:
23.6 m
Explanation:
When the ball reaches its highest point, the vertical velocity is 0. First, find the time it takes to reach the highest point. In the y direction:
v = at + v₀
0 m/s = (-9.8 m/s²) t + (22.5 sin 33.0° m/s)
t = 1.25 s
Now find the horizontal distance traveled in that time. In the x direction:
x = x₀ + v₀ t + ½ at²
x = (0 m) + (22.5 cos 33.0° m/s) (1.25 s) + ½ (0 m/s²) (1.25 s)²
x ≈ 23.6 m
The ball moves approximately 23.6 meters horizontally when it reaches its highest point.
