82. A major league baseball player throws a baseball at 95 mi/h. (a) Convert this into m/s. (1 mi = 1609 m) (b) Calculate the kinetic energy of the baseball at the instant it leaves the pitcher's hand at this speed. The baseball's mass is 0.145 kg. (c) The ball is struck by the batter, and the ball falls foul and lies at rest while an outfielder jogs to get it. Oh my, the ball ends up at rest on the ground! Well, where did that kinetic energy that you calculated above end up? Explain.
