Answer:

The average speed of the baseball is 25 m/s.

Explanation:

The average speed is given by:


v = (d)/(t)

Having that:

d = 15 m

t = 0.6 s

The average speed of the baseball is:


v = (d)/(t) = (15 m)/(0.6 s) = 25 m/s

Therefore, the average speed of the baseball is 25 m/s.

I hope it helps you!
