(a) If a pitch is thrown horizontally with an initial speed of 32 m>s, how far does it drop by thetime it reaches the catcher? (b) If the speed of the pitch is increased,does the drop distance increase, decrease, or stay the same? Explain.(c) If this baseball game were to be played on the Moon, would thedrop distance increase, decrease, or stay the same? Explain
