A student throws a baseball upwards at an angle of 60 degrees to the horizontal. The initial horizontal and vertical components are 12.5 m/s and 21.7 m/s, respectively. Refer to the information and diagram above. The student would like to increase the flight time of the baseball without changing the angle the ball is released. What can the student do to increase the flight time of the ball?
Increase the mas
Decrease the Velocity
Decrease the mass
Increase the velocity
