    Kinematics Problem: How Far Will a Pitch Fall Vertically at 61.2 ft?

    And there's the small detail I overlooked. Its always something simple. Thanks! And thanks for the welcome. Just started my physics class this semester, so sometimes the little things like that escape me.

    Kinematics Problem: How Far Will a Pitch Fall Vertically at 61.2 ft?

    Homework Statement Directly from my homework. One of the fastest recorded pitches in major-league baseball, thrown by Nolan Ryan in 1974, was clocked at 100.8 mi/hr. If a pitch were thrown horizontally with this velocity, how far would the ball fall vertically by the time it reached 61.2 ft...
