Player B wishes to duplicate this bunt, in so far as he also wants to give the ball a velocity parallel to the ground and have his ball travel the same horizontal distance as player A's ball does. However, player B hits the ball when it is 1.62 m above the ground. What is the magnitude of the initial velocity that player B's ball must be given?
