When it hits with the baseball bat, you exert an average force of 78 N, sending the ball back at 30 m/s. How long was the baseball in contact with the bat? Please answer in m/sarrow_forwardThree carts are moving on a frictionless horizontal track as shown in the figure. The 4.00 kg cart is moving to the right with a speed of 7.0 m/s, the 10.0 kg cart is also moving to the right with a speed of 6.0 m/s while the 3.00 kg cart moves to the left with a speed of 7 m/s. Find the final speed of the carts when they are all stuck together. Hint: The order at which the carts stick together does not matter. Can you see why?arrow_forward
