Question
A pitcher throws a fastball with a speed of 45 m/s towards home plate. The batter swings his bat (mbat = 0.94 kg) with a speed of 47 m/s and hits the ball (mball = 0.145 kg)
in the opposite direction with a speed of 50 m/s. The time of contact between the bat and the ball is 0.7 milliseconds (0.0007s).
1: What is the change in momentum of the ball in kg*m/?
2: What is the average force in N exerted on the ball by the bat?
3:What is the acceleration of the ball in m/s²?
4:What is the velocity in m/s of the bat immediately after the collision?
5:How many times larger or smaller is the acceleration of the ball than the gravitational acceleration, g?
6:What is the kinetic energy of the system immediately before the bat hits the ball?
7:What is the kinetic energy of the system immediately after the bat hits the ball?
