The force acting on the ball are unbalanced. Reactionary momentum force (that originated as a result of the swing of the bat) is the most powerful.

Yes friction is acting on the ball. In course of journey it would slow the ball down and make it trace a parabolic path rather than straight path as intended by hitter.

Explanation:

As the hitter hits the ball, momentum of the bat due to swing (mass of the bat*velocity provided by the batsman swinging action of bat) gets transferred on the ball on its impact with the bat.

Since ball’s mass is quite small as compared to the bat, the velocity of the ball increases by the same factor by which the ball’s mass is lower than the bat’s mass. This velocity causes forward motion of the ball (of course in the direction of bat’s motion, here the batsman intends to send the ball straight away hence the ball would move straight).

Various forces on ball is-

  • Reactionary momentum force -bat’s force (most powerful force)
  • The frictional force of the air (opposing the motion of the ball through the air)
  • Gravity force (pulling the ball down to the Earth)

As a combined effect of these force when all the force remains unbalanced, the ball moves away in the straight path under the impact of bats momentum which was most powerful of all.

Frictional force and Gravity force continue acting on the ball. While frictional forces decrease the ball velocity through the air, gravity force pulls it down thus deflecting its direction. Under the combined impact of declining bats momentum, friction force and gravity force, the ball traces a parabolic path  (in accordance with the first law of motion from Newton)

How much force is required to accelerate a 9.0-g object at 10000 g's?
Yuki888 [10]
Hey give us m = 9.0 g = 9.0 x 10-3 kg, and a = 10,000 "g's" = 98000 m/s/s so:F = ma = (9.0 x 10-3 kg)(98000 m/s/s) = 882 N = 880 N

A ball is thrown horizontally from the top of a tall cliff. Neglecting air drag, what vertical distance will the ball have falle
adell [148]

The relevant equation to use here is:

y = v0 t + 0.5 g t^2

where y is the vertical distance, v0 is initial velocity = 0, t is time, g = 9.8 m/s^2

 

y = 0 + 0.5 * 9.8 * 3^2

<span>y = 44.1 meters</span>

The Iceberg Kid, infamous for imposing a deep freeze on whoever disagrees with him, discovers that in his advanced teenaged year
Mademuasel [1]

Answer:

7.24 Ω

Explanation:

Power = energy / time = 195 J / 9.81 = 19.88 W

and power = V² / R

R  resistance = 12 V²  / 19.88 W  = 7.24 Ω

What occurs when someone places an ice pack on an injured ankle?
erica [24]

The answer is:

Heat from the ankle is transferred to the ice pack.

The explanation:

-when the ice pack  a lower temp than the ankle , it is very cool.

- and the injured ankle has a high temp or heat

and we know that Q transfer from the object with high heat to the object with the low temp So,

Heat will transfer from the ankle to the ice pack.
