Final answer:
To solve this problem, we need to use equations related to projectile motion to calculate the horizontal distance traveled by the baseball.
Step-by-step explanation:
In this question, we are given the mass and velocity of a baseball as well as the angle at which it is tossed. To solve for the horizontal component of the velocity, we can use the equation v = v0 * cos(theta), where v is the initial velocity, v0 is the horizontal component of the velocity, and theta is the angle. Plugging in the given values, we can calculate v0.
Next, we can use the equation v = v0 * sin(theta) - g * t, where v is the final velocity, v0 is the vertical component of the velocity, g is the acceleration due to gravity, and t is the time of flight. Using the given information, we can solve for t.
Finally, we can use the equation s = v0 * t, where s is the horizontal distance traveled. Plugging in the values for v0 and t that we calculated earlier, we can find the answer to the question.
