A pitcher throws a 0.143-kg baseball toward the batter so that it crosses home plate horizontally and has a speed of 42 m/s just before it makes contact with the bat. The batter then hits the ball straight back at the pitcher with a speed of 49 m/s. Assume the ball travels along the same line leaving the bat as it followed before contacting the bat. If the ball is in contact with the bat for 0.005 0 s, what is the magnitude of the average force exerted by the bat on the ball?

200N appox

Explanation:

Step one:

Given data

mass of ball= 0.143kg

initial velocity of ball u= 42m/s

final velocity of the ball= 49m/s

time of impact= 0.005s

Step two

From the relation Ft=mΔv

we can find the average force as

F=mΔv/t

substitute

F=0.143*(49-42)/0.005

F=0.143*7/0.005

F=1.001/0.005

F=200.2

F= 200N appox

The average force is  200N

Get a napkin and wipe that frl good cuz i used to do that when they put onions on my happy meal (when i told them not to) and i hateee onions, but I’d advise you dont eat it if it has mold cuz thats a health hazard
