Abaseball pitcher throws a ball horizontally at a speed of 34.0 m/s. a catcher is 18.6 m away from the pitcher. find the magnitude, in meters, of the vertical distance that the ball drops as it moves from the pitcher to the catcher. ignore air resistance.

To develop this problem, it is necessary to apply the concepts related to the description of the movement through the kinematic trajectory equations, which include displacement, velocity and acceleration.

The trajectory equation from the motion kinematic equations is given by

Where,

a = acceleration

t = time

= Initial velocity

= initial position

In addition to this we know that speed, speed is the change of position in relation to time. So

x = Displacement

t = time

With the data we have we can find the time as well

With the equation of motion and considering that we have no initial position, that the initial velocity is also zero then and that the acceleration is gravity,

Therefore the vertical distance that the ball drops as it moves from the pitcher to the catcher is 1.46m.

gravititional force is a force that is acting around you, it is non-contactable and it is a force that pulls you to the core of the earth.
