Question

Differential calculus Question :

A softball diamond is a square whose sides are 60 ft long. Suppose that a player running from first to second base has a speed of 25 ft/s at the instant when she is 10 ft from second base. At what rate is the player's distance from home plate changing at that instant?

Answer 1

First of all, I am not getting this question.

Is it baseball ground that discussed in the question?

Answer 2

In our country baseball is not played. So I don't know how to make figure for it.

Answer 3

Does figure look like this?

H=Home plate,
1= first base,
2=second base,
3=third base,
4=4th base.

Answer 4

it's hardly fair for them to give you a question on a game that they basically only play in the US lol
