A baseball is hit at a height h = 1.00 m...

A baseball is hit at a height h = 1.00 m and then caught at the same height. It travels alongside a wall, moving up past the top of the wall 1.00 s after it is hit and then down past the top of the wall. 4.00 s later, at distance D = 50.0 m farther along the wall. (a) What horizontal distance is traveled by the ball from hit to catch? What are the (b) magnitude and ( c) angle (relative to the horizontal) of the ball's velocity just after being hit? (d) How high is the wall?
