Help Please

Answer 1

Since the baseball is half the weight of the softball, the baseball has to go twice as fast as the softball.

So the best answer would be D

Answer 2

Answer:

D.) The baseball is thrown at 50 m/s and the softball is thrown at 25 m/s.

Explanation:

mass of ball 1

$m_1 = 140 grams$

mass of ball 2

$m_2 = 280 grams$

now we know that if the momentum of two balls are same then we will have

$P_1 = P_2$

$m_1v_1 = m_2 v_2$

so we have

$140 v_1 = 280 v_2$

$v_1 = 2 v_2$

so velocity of light ball must be twice the velocity of heavy ball

so correct answer will be

D.) The baseball is thrown at 50 m/s and the softball is thrown at 25 m/s.
