Can someone help me on this? I am trying to find the reaction speed of Evan Longoria reaction to a ball that he caught before hitting a news reporter.
Evan Longoria's Catch saves Reporter's Life!
How what appears in distance between the guy serving and Evan appears to be somewhere further back from First Base, I guess 90-95 ft. from this image (I will be using 95ft as he appears to be further).
And the time it took to reach Evan from the batter is roughly 2 seconds.
So the ball must be moving at around 14.478 m/s.
and he didn't notice till the ball reached around first base at the end. So rightly 5ft = 1.524 meters
So taking that distance and divide that with the speed of the ball, I would get 0.105 seconds, so Peak Human correct?
