Gate-control theory
<h3>What is Gate-control theory?</h3>
According to the Gate Control Theory of Pain, the spinal cord has a system that allows pain signals to be amplified in the brain before being processed at the spinal cord itself, or attenuated there.
The mechanism that allows or prevents the passage of pain signals is known as the gate. The gate may be open or it may be closed, one of two possibilities:
- When the gate is open, pain signals can enter and are delivered to the brain, where they are perceived as pain.
- If the gate is closed, pain signals will be prevented from ascending to the brain and won't be felt.
The administration of a non-noxious (soothing or light rubbing) stimulus can help engage the gate control mechanism and alleviate pain in those who are exposed to painful (noxious) stimuli.

I see I'm late but I believe it's A. , opposites attract. I'm taking the test right now lol
Explanation:
We have,
Mass of a baseball is 0.147 kg
Initial velocity of the baseball is 44.5 m/s
The ball is moved in the opposite direction with a velocity of 55.5 m/s
It is required to find the magnitude of the change in momentum of the ball and of the impulse applied to it by the bat.
Change in momentum,
Impulse = 14.7 kg-m/s
Therefore, the magnitude of the change in momentum of the ball and of the impulse applied to it by the bat is 14.7 kg-m/s
