Playing shortstop, you pick up a ground ball and throw it to second base. The ball is thrown horizontally, with a speed of 22 m/s, directly toward point A (Figure 413). When the ball reaches the second baseman 0.45 s later, it is caught at point B. (a) How far were you from the second baseman? (b) Wh
