In a Kinesiology softball game, Alex is playing Right Field and attempts to throw out a runner, Max, tagging up from 3rd base, at home plate. Alex throws the ball from Right Field and it is caught at home plate by the catcher. Alex releases the baseball at a 49° angle at a height of 2.1m with an initial velocity of 36.5 m/s. The catcher catches the ball at a height of 0.25m. Ignore air resistance. What is the magnitude of the VERTICAL velocity of the baseball at the moment of release?
