Answer to Problem 102A
The distance of the baseball dropped by the time it crosses the home plate is
Explanation of Solution
Given:
The speed of the ball is
The distance of the home plate is
Formula used:
The expression for the velocity is,
Here,
Calculation:
Consider the acceleration due to gravity as
Consider the initial displacement and the initial velocity as zero.
The situation is shown below.
The time period for the displacement is,
The distance of the baseball dropped by the time it crosses the home plate is,
Conclusion:
Thus, the distance of the baseball dropped by the time it crosses the home plate is
