A pitcher throws a ball at 40.0 m/s and the ball is electronically timed to arrive at home plate 0.4625 s later. What is the distance from the pitcher to the home plate?
Solution) Given
Velocity V = 40 m/s
Time t = 0.4625 s
Distance D = ?
We know
Velocity = Distance/time
V = D/t
D = V × t
D = 40 × 0.4625
D = 18.5 m
