Question
The instant before a batter hits a 0.14 KG baseball, the velocity of the ball is 45 meters per second west. The instant after the batter hits the ball, the ball's velocity is 35 meters per second eat. The bat and ball are in contact for 1.0×10-2 second.
(a) How do I determine the magnitude and direction of the average acceleration of the baseball while it is in contact with the bat?

- A demonstration of reaction time is to hold one end of a dollar bill so that it hangs lengthwise below your fingers, then ask a friend to hold his fingers near the lower corner of the bill. When you release the bill, he is to try to catch it. If a typical reaction time in this case is 0.25 s, how long would a bill need to be for a person to have a good chance of catching it?arrow_forwardA model rocket is launched from the ground at rest.
