Question

When Jacob bats a baseball with a net force of 4.719 N, it accelerates 33 m/s2. What is the mass of the baseball? (Disregard air resistance.) kg

Answer 1

The answer for the problem is explained through this:
The following are the given:

F = 4.719 N, the applied force

a = 33 m/s², the acceleration
Let m = the mass.
By definition of the formula:

F = m*a

Therefore,

m = F/a

    = (4.719 N)/(33 m/s²)

    = 0.143 kg


Answer: 0.143 kg
