Jose Canseco hit three fifth-deck home runs at SkyDome/Rogers Centre during his career, including the first ever at the stadium in 1989. That first homer is listed as a distance of 480 ft, and the fifth deck is approximately 75 feet above field level. How fast was the ball going just as it left Conseco’s bat?

Answer:

187 ft/s

Step-by-step explanation:

Given in the y direction:

v₀ = 0 ft/s

Δy = 75 ft

a = 32 ft/s²

Find: t

Δy = v₀ t + ½ at²

(75 ft) = (0 ft/s) t + ½ (32 ft/s²) t²

t = 2.165 s

Given in the x direction:

Δx = 480 ft

a = 0 ft/s²

t = 2.165 s

Find: v₀

Δx = v₀ t + ½ at²

(480 ft) = v₀ (2.165 s) + ½ (32 ft/s²) (2.165 s)²

v₀ = 187 ft/s
