A baseball pitcher throws a fastball at 98 mph. He also has a slower "changeup" pitch, 75 mph, which he throws identically, same windup and same release angle from shoulder height. Which pitch gets to home plate with a flatter trajectory-i.e., velocity vector closer to horizontal?

A. The fastball B. The changeup C. They each have same trajectory, since the distance to home plate is the same
