In the same manner that a side arm or traditional delivery pitcher would. Snapping of the wrist and the location of the balls seams determine how it will break.
As for the ending location, that comes with practice.
It should be noted, however, that most side arm and submarine arm pitches typically only throw sliders or change ups as their breaking pitches, relying mainly on the deceptive delivery to fool batters.

What is the difference between a pitcher's command and a pitcher's control?
Great question. The pitchers command means that his pitches are doing what he wants them to do. If his intent is to throw a curve ball, then the ball will curve. The pitcher has control when the pitches he throws are staying in the strike zone like he wants. If he wants to throw a ball, then he is throwing balls. your curveball can curve, your breaking ball can break, your slider will slide, and your fastball is fast.... however if you can't get it over the plate ( or reasonably within range), you have no control.
Which pitch do you think is more effective in baseball, the slider or the breaking ball?
Both the slider and the breaking ball are effective pitches in baseball, but the effectiveness of each can vary depending on the pitcher's skill and the situation in the game. The slider is known for its sharp, late-breaking movement, making it difficult for batters to make solid contact. On the other hand, the breaking ball, which includes pitches like curveballs and knuckleballs, can also be effective in fooling batters with its unpredictable trajectory. Ultimately, the effectiveness of each pitch depends on the pitcher's ability to control and execute them effectively.

Can you steal a base when the pitcher has the ball?

What physical forces control the proper distance from the pitcher a curve ball breaks?
When the ball initially leaves the pitcher's hand, the forward momentum of the ball is stronger than the sideward aerodyamic force (created by the spin of the ball). However, as the ball slows down (as it approaches the batter), the sideward aerodynmic force starts to overcome the forward momentum of the ball, thus, the ball curves.
What happens if the pitcher drops the ball while in contact with the runner?
If the pitcher is in contact with the runner, the runner is safe if the pitcher drops the ball. If the pitcher is in contact with the rubber, it is a balk if he drops the ball.
