Softball weigh around 180 grams or that would be 0.18 Kg. Basketball usually weighs around 22 ounce or 0.6 Kg. To compare the momentum of the two ball we have to use the formula of momentum which is p = mv. m for mass and v for velocity. let us assume both ball are travelling 2 m/s).

Softball. p = mv = (0.18 Kg)(2 m/s) = 0.36 Kg.m/s ( smaller momentum)

Basketball p = mv = (0.6 Kg)(2 m/s) = 1. 2 Kg.m/s (larger momentum

A roller coaster car is going over the top of a 18-m-radius circular rise. at the top of the hill, the passengers "feel light,"
Mashutka [201]

The solution for this problem is:

If they feel 50% of their weight that means that the centripetal force is also 50% of their weight 1g - 0.5g = 0.5g 


Then 0.5* 9.8m/s² * 18m = 88.2 would be v² 

Then get the square root, the answer would be:
and v = 9.391 m/s is the answer.
