The distance from the pitcher's mound to hoe plate is 60 feet 6 inches (18.44 m). The fastest recorded pitch is 104.8 mph. If the pitch was thrown with a release angle of 0 degree relative to the horizontal, what's the vertical displacement of the ball between ball release on the mound and home plate? Assume the ball is released 18.44 m from home plate

Given the same velocity in the problem above, how long does a batter
have to react to the pitch? Given that the best reaction time to a
visual stimulus is around 0.2 sec and the added time it takes to swing
the bat, how much time does the batter have to make a decision to
swing at this pitch
