The gravitational force exerted on a baseball is 2.11 Newton down. A pitcher throws the ball horizontally with velocity 15.0 meter per second by uniformly accelerating it along a straight horizontal line for a time interval of 174 milliseconds. The ball starts from rest.
(a) Find through what distance does it move before its release?
m
(b) Find the magnitude and direction of the force the pitcher exerts on the ball?
magnitude N
direction ° above the horizontal
