Assuming constant velocities, if a fastball pitch is thrown and travels at 40 m/s toward home plat e, 18 m away, and the head of the bat is simultaneously traveling toward the ball at 18.0 m/s, how much time elapses b efore the bat hits the ball? Draw a position-time graph to help you arrive at your answer.
