Answer:

<em>The force between the ball and the bat = 2233 N</em>

Explanation:

Force: This can be defined as the product of force and its acceleration.

The S.I unit of Force is Newton (N)

F = ma .............................. Equation 1

Where F = Force , m = mass of the ball, a = acceleration of the ball.

where

a = (v-u)/t..................... Equation 2

Where v = final velocity of the ball, u = initial velocity of the ball, t = time of contact between the ball an the bat.

<em>Given: v = 46 m/s u = - 31 m/s (it hit an horizontal line drive back at the pitcher), t = 5×10⁻³ s</em>

<em>Substituting these values into equation 2,</em>

<em>a = [46-(31)]/(5×10⁻³ )</em>

a = 77<em>×10³/5</em>

<em>a = 15.4×10³ m/s².</em>

<em>Also given m = 0.145 kg</em>

<em>Substituting into equation 1,</em>

F = 0.145(15.4<em>×10³ )</em>

F = 2233 N

<em>Thus the force between the ball and the bat = 2233 N</em>

<em></em>

Do balanced forces change an objects motion
meriva

If the group of all forces acting on an object is balanced,
then the effect of all of them is the same as if there were
no forces at all on the object.  In that case, the object
continues moving in a straight line at a constant speed.

Mkey [24]
A lightning strike happens so fast, and only hits a point of your body, but if you've noticed that it still completely melts the part of your body that it has stuck? Also the sun is a large mass of that heat, that will melts you the same way as lightning would if it were to continuously strike you all over your body. <span />
