A professional baseball player can throw the ball around 45 m/s if the distance between the pitcher and the batter is 18.39 m. How much time does it take for the ball to get to the batter?

The time taken for the ball to get to the batter is 0.41 s.

Explanation:

Given;

initial velocity of the baseball, u = 45 m/s

horizontal distance between the pitcher and the batter, X = 18.39 m

The horizontal distance or range of a projectile is given as;

X = ut

where;

t is the time of flight

u is the initial velocity

t = X / u

t = 18.39 / 45

t = 0.41 s

Therefore, the time taken for the ball to get to the batter is 0.41 s.

air exerts forces on falling objects near earth’s surface.

explanation:

the term 'free falls' refer to object that are falling towards the earth, in a situation in which gravity is the only force acting on the object.

for an object in free fall, the acceleration is constant (g, the gravitational acceleration), and so the velocity of the object constantly increases.

for objects near earth's surface, there is always another force acting on the object: the resistance due to the air. this force is opposed to the direction of fall of the object, and it is proportional to the velocity of the object, so as the object falls down, this force increases up to a point when it balances the force of gravity, and the object continues its motion at constant velocity (called terminal velocity). since in this case gravity is not the only force acting on the object, we are not in a situation of free fall.
