Many major-league baseball pitchers can throw the ball at 90 miles per hour. at that speed, how long does it take a pitch to travel from the pitcher’s mound to home plate, a distance of 60 feet 6 inches? give your answer to the nearest hundredth of a second. there are 5280 feet in a mile and 12 inches in a foot.

To solve this problem, we must first convert the distance into miles:

distance = 60 ft (1 mile / 5280 ft) + 6 inches (1 foot / 12 inches) (1 mile / 5280 ft)

distance = 0.0114583 mile

To calculate for time:

time = distance / speed

time = 0.0114583 mile / (90 miles / 3600 seconds)

time = 0.458 seconds

time = 0.46 seconds

It would take 0.46 second to travel from the pitcher's mound to home plate.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Speed at which baseball pitchers can throw the ball = 90 miles per hour

Distance covered = 60 feet 6 inches

As we know that

1 mile = 5280 feet

and 1 foot = 12 inches

6 inches =

So, total feet would be 60 feet +0.5 feet = 60.5 feet

Now,

1 feet =

So, 60.5 feet =

so, Time taken by pitch to travel from the pitcher's mound to home plate is given by

Hence, it would take 0.46 second to travel from the pitcher's mound to home plate.

da freeck kinda math is this just drop out
