How long does it take for this ball to travel over home plate?

Carla throws a baseball at 150km/h. Calculate the time, in seconds, for the ball to travel over home plate, a distance of 0.22metres.How long does it take for this ball to travel over home plate?velocity (v) = distance (d) / time (t)

v= 150km/h = 150*1000 m/3600 s = 41.67 m/s (mps) (meter per second )



t = d / v = .22 m / 41.67 mps = 0.005279 seconds



this is in one case where is not including deceleration of the ball because for that you need more data
