Iam having trouble with these also, and if you could also explain

Abaseball picther can throw a ball at about 90 miles per hour, v = 40 m/s, on solid rock ground. we now put him into space. when he throws the ball, which weighs mb = 0.15 kg moves away from himat the same speed. how long does it take the ball thrown in space to travel the 30 meters to the batter? he weighs mp = 100kg

Aparticle moves in the xy plane with constant acceleration. at time zero, the particle is at x = 6 m, y = 8.5 m, and has velocity ~vo = (9 m/s) ˆı + (−2.5 m/s) ˆ . the acceleration is given by ~a = (4.5 m/s 2 ) ˆı + (3 m/s 2 ) ˆ . what is the x component of velocity after 3.5 s? answer in units of m/s.

Amoving electron has kinetic energy k1. after a net amount of work w has been done on it, the electron is moving one-quarter as fast in the opposite direction. (a) find w in terms of k1. (b) does your answer depend on the final direction of the electron's motion?
