5 0

5 N backwards because it exerts an equal and opposite force

Answer:

5 N backwards

Explanation:

As we know that as per Newton's III law every action has equal and opposite reaction force.

So if we applied an action force on an object then that object will apply equal force but opposite in direction on us

So here we know that bat exert a forward force on the ball which is of magnitude 5 N

so as per Newton's III law the ball must exert same force of same magnitude in opposite direction on bat

So here force applied by ball will be

F = 5 N backwards
