5. At the bottom of the 9th inning, a player hits a 0.15 kg baseball over the outfield fence. The ball leaves the bat with a speed of 36.0 m/s and a fan in the bleachers catches it 7.2 m above the point where it was hit (h=7.2m in the picture). Neglect air resistance. a. What is the speed vf of the ball when caught? b. What is the kinetic energy of the ball when caught?
