Before the impact, let the velocity of the baseball was v m/s.
After being hit by the bat its velocity is -2v
So, change in velocity, Deltav=v-(-2v)=3v
Acceleration is defined as the rate of change in velocity, i.e. actual change in velocity divided by the time taken to change it. Time taken to change velocity is the time of actual contact of the bat and ball, i.e. 0.31 s.
a=(Deltav)/(Deltat)
=(3v)/0.37
Therefore, a/v=3/0.31=9.7 s^-1
So, the ratio of acceleration of the baseball to its original velocity is 9.7.

The northern hemisphere is experiencing winter because it is tilted away from the sun whereas the south experiences summer because it is tilted towards the sun
Answer:

Explanation:
m = Mass of object = 
mg = Weight of object = 20 N
g = Acceleration due to gravity = 
v = Final velocity = 15 m/s
u = Initial velocity = 0
d = Distance moved by the object = 150 m
= Angle of slope = 
f = Force of friction
fd = Work done against friction
The force balance of the system is

The work done against friction is
.
<em>Another key factor that determines a star's colour is its temperature. As stars become hotter, the overall radiated energy increases, and the peak of the curve changes to shorter wavelengths. To put it another way, when a star heats up, the light it produces moves toward the blue end of the spectrum.</em>
