Answer:

23. 0.4583 seconds

24. 0.0107 seconds

Explanation:

The problem statement tells you how to work it. You need to convert speed from miles per hour to feet (or inches) per second.

90 mi/h = (90·5280 ft)/(3600 s) = 132 ft/s = (132·12 in)/s = 1584 in/s

__

23. The time it takes for the ball to travel 60.5 ft is ...

time = distance/speed

time = (60.5 ft)/(132 ft/s) = 0.4583 s

It takes 458.3 milliseconds to reach home plate.

__

24. time = distance/speed

time = (17 in)/(1584 in/s) = 0.0107 s

The ball is in the strike zone for 10.7 milliseconds.
