When a pitcher pitches the ball, she (or he) applies a force to it to push it over the plate. Depending on the size of the ball they use and the amount of force applied, the ball will take a different path to the plate. So if a pitcher applies a lot of force with a small ball, the ball will go faster. If the pitcher applies little force to a large ball it may not travel as quickly.

What is the acceleration of a softball if it has a mass of 0.50 kg and hits the catcher's glove with a force of 25 newtrons?

Force equals mass times acceleration. Similarly, acceleration equals force divided by mass. So, 50 Newtons divided by 0.5 kilograms is 100 meters per second squared.
