To compare:The distance covered by the fastball in first
Answer to Problem 71A
The distance covered by the fastball in the second
Explanation of Solution
Given:
The time taken by the fastball to reach the plate is
Consider that such pitch is thrown in horizontal direction.
Formula used:
The equation of motion is,
Here,
Calculation:
The time taken by the fastball to reach the plate is
The motion of the fastball is under the influence of gravitation force.
Consider the acceleration due to gravity of Earth as
The initial velocity
The total distance
Consider the motion of the fastball in the first
The distance
Consider the motion of the fastball in the second
The distance
The distance covered by the fastball in first
The distance covered by the fastball in second
Compare the distance covered by the fastball in the first
The fastball covers more distance in the second
Conclusion:
Thus, the distance covered by the fastball in the second
