The distance travelled by the baseball is 221 m.

Step-by-step explanation:

Speed is the ratio of distance travelled to the time taken to cover any distance. So here the speed is given as 96 m/s and time is given as 2.3 seconds. Thus, we can determine the distance as product of speed with time.


\text { speed }=\frac{\text {distance}}{\text {time}}

Thus, distance = speed × Time

As the speed is 96 m/s and time is 2.3 seconds.

The distance = 96 × 2.3 =220.8 m

If we approximate it, the distance is 221 m. Thus, the distance travelled by the baseball is 221 m.
