The ball because the Kinetic Energy transfers from the bat to the ball, increasing the movement and acceleration of the ball because of the Kinetic Energy transferred from the origin force (The bat)

Answer: The ball.

Explanation: Right before the impact, the bat will have a bigger acceleration than the ball (assuming that the ball is trowed softly), and after the impact, there will be some energy of the bat transferred to the ball. As the ball has a lot less mass than the bat, it is "easily" accelerated:

Remember that the second Newton's law says that:

F = m*a

So, after the impact, the ball has a greater acceleration than the bat (Also, if the bat had more acceleration than the ball, it will "push" the ball, but you can see that the ball "escapes" to the bat after the initial impact).

A set of charged plates 0.00262 m apart has an electric field of 155 N/C between them. What is the potential difference between
mylen [45]

Answer: The potential difference between the plates = 0.4061V

Explanation:

Given that the

Electric field strength E = 155 N/C

Distance d = 0.00262 m

From the definition of electric field strength, is the ratio of potential difference V to the distance between the plates. That is

E = V/d

Substitute E and d into the above formula

155 = V/0.00262

Cross multiply

V = 155 × 0.00262

V = 0.4061 V

The potential difference between the plates is 0.4061 V
