A ball player hits a home run, and the baseball just clears a wall 8.00 m high located 106.7 m from home plate. The ball is hit at an angle of 36.2 degrees to the horizontal, and air resistance is negligible. Assume the ball is hit at a height of 1.1 m above the ground. What is the initial speed of the ball in m/s?

when you ask super top notch quality questions and get very few answers? Is that because of planetary alignment or some other factor beyond the normal?

Father has never had anything to do with the child. She is almost 1 now and me and the father have not been "dating" the entire time. I've had a restraining order against him this whole time as well. Since we weren't married does he have any rights at all? I'm just curious as to what the laws are. Every lawyer i've tried to contact avoids giving me any answers. So i turn to you.....

Recently I left a job to work with my self employed husband. My job was not a very high paying job. I made just enough money to pay my child support each week and pay for the trip to pick up my children every other week. It is a long drive so it cost alot to make these trips. Before I left my job my husband and I had discussed our concerns about working together again. We had done so in the past with less than good results. My husband is the real income earner in our home. We have one child at home. His parents live with us and he supports them as well. He promised me that if I work with him he will make sure my child support gets pd and that we will ave money to make the trip. I promised I would not quit working with him. He does need an assistant and can not afford to hire one. This week I started to make my child support payment online but he told me that we did not have enuff money. I became upset with him & told him that I have to find a job that will pay. We both feel betrayed.

Since this question I posted yesterday was deleted, I guess I have to post it again.

So...do you think there will be a collective "snapping of the heads" to attention? A blinking and rubbing of the eyes like they've been bewitched for eight years?

My cat is a real talker and he's very loud. He belows almost, and he won't stop unless I'm giving him constant attention. I've tried to hold him and pet him to calm him down in hopes that he would go to sleep but he doesn't. Instead he just jumps out of my arms and walks all over the house meowing more and more. I live in an apartment and I'm really afraid that my neighbors will complain about it. Is there anything that I can do to stop this from happening because I don't want to have to get rid of him. Oh and he is neutered so I don't think he's calling out to the females. He did only get neutered about 6 - 8 weeks ago so maybe he hasn't had enough time for the hormones to subside. Any advice would be great. Thanks in advance.

We have 5 acre prop w/ about 200 avocado trees.Located outside our fence is the water company's pressure regulator; A month or so ago, we started having problems w/ our sprinkler system and 'noticed increased water pressure inside the house. Then, a pvc pipe close to the water co's pressure regulator broke & a plumber replaced a 2" ball valve & repaired the 2" pvc leak ($500). I called the water company & told them of problems we're starting to experience. They checked & replaced their broken pressure regulator. They also claim, their broken pressure regulator has nothing to do with problems we are experiencing. Is this true or not?

I don't see any info anywhere about Kiva.org that says you get interest back. Does that mean you just help people out by lending them money and getting the same amount back?

Ok so my fiance's sister is against the wedding. We have been dating for four years and she says that we are rushing into things. On top of that she stopped speaking to us after he told her to stop badgering him about seeing his grandma. Note: We live and hour away and we see her once a month while his sister lives a mile down the road and never sees her. Also, his grandma surprised me when she told a friend in front of me that her world collapsed when we became engaged. Please help!! The wedding is next year and on top of planning a wedding I have to deal with those two. I want them to be at the wedding but together we have agreed that it might not be the best thing.. Any suggestion?
