Next, standing 2 m apart, Jerry throws to Tom and Tom throws back to Jerry. After each pair of throws, Tom moves 1 m farther away from Jerry. They stop playing when one of them misses the ball. If the game ends when the 33rd throw is missed, how far apart are they standing and who misses catching the ball
