Answer: The ball will exert 1000 N of force in opposite direction on the bat.

Explanation:

We are given a bat which hits the ball with a force of 1000 N and we need to find the force which the ball exerts on the bat. This phenomena is very well explained by Newton's third law which states that every action has an equal and opposite reaction.

This means that the reaction force will always have an action force which is equal in magnitude.

Hence, the ball exerts an equal magnitude of force on bat which the bat exerts on ball but the force will be acted on in the opposite direction.

So, the ball will exert 1000 N of force in opposite direction on the bat.

Same magnitude (1000N) and opposite direction
you may also answer -1000 N

dangina [55]

Send wave from your location to the object and wait until echo is back.
Measure the time taken.

If you know the speed of wave (say sound wave), than just multiply by half time taken wave to return

You paddle a conoe with a force of 325 N. You and the canoe have a combined mass of 250 kg. What is the acceleration of the cano

Brums [2.3K]

$f = ma$

Rearranging it, we get;

$a = \frac{f}{m}$
Where a is the acceleration, f is the force, and m is the mass

$a = \frac{325}{250}$
$a = 1.3 \frac{m}{ {s}^{2} }$

Explanation:

The Yerkes Primate center was established in 1930 by Robert Yerkes, in Orange Park, Florida. But was moved to its present location in Emory University.

The center has its focus on two major area of research, which are Immunology and Vaccine, and research towards increasing the understanding of progressive illnesses, such as Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s diseases.

A soccer player kicks a soccer ball with a force of 1.8 N. If the mass of the ball is .43 kg. How fast will the ball accelerate?

Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

The acceleration of the ball is 4.18 [m/s^2]

Explanation:

By Newton's second law we can find the acceleration of the ball

$F = m*a\\where:\\F = force applied [N] or [kg*m/s^2]\\m = mass of the ball [kg]\\a = acceleration [m/s^s]$
