Question

The best leaper in the animal kingdom is the puma, which can jump to a height of 12 ft. when leaving the ground at an angle of 45°. With what speed, in m/s, must it leave the ground to reach this height? 1. 2. One of the fastest recorded pitches in major league baseball, thrown by Nolan Ryan in 1974, was clocked at 100 mi/h. If a pitch were thrown horizontally with this velocity, how far would the ball fall vertically by the time it reached home plate, 60.0 ft. away?
