A baseball with a mass of 151 g is thrown horizontally with a speed of 40.3 m/s (90 mi/h) at a bat. The ball is in contact with

the bat for 1.15 ms and then travels straight back at a speed of 46.0 m/s (103 mi/h). Determine the average force (in N) exerted on the ball by the bat. Neglect the weight of the ball (it is much smaller than the force of the bat) and choose the direction of the incoming ball to be positive. (Indicate the direction with the sign of your answer.)

Answer:

A baseball (m= 149g) approaches a bat horizontally at a speed of 40.2 m/s (90 mi/h) and is hit straight back at a speed of 45.6m/s (102mi/h). If the ball is in contact with the bat for a time of 1.10ms, what is the average force exerted on the ball by the bat ? Neglect the weight of the ball, since it is so much less than the force of the bat. Choose the direction of the incoming ball as the positive direction.

Explanation:

Use the impulse equation (a form of Newton's 2nd Law): FΔt = Δ(mv) where Δ means "change in"

The change in momentum is mBB(vf - vi) = (.150 kg)(-46.9 m/s - 40.5 m/s)

Divide this by the time interval and you get F exerted by the bat in Newtons.

Take care.

The culture that gave the visiting Europeans eyeglasses and silk fabric was the Chinese civilization. The Chinese invented eyeglasses over a 1,000 years ago<span>, according to British scientist and historian Sir Joseph Needman. By the time Marco Polo arrived in China around 1270, eyeglasses (which he mentions in his accounts) were widely used in Chinese upper class. On the other hand, s</span>ilk has been used by the Chinese for approximately 5,000 years.<span> The earliest evidence of silk dates back to around 4,000-3,000 BC in Shanxi province, where a culture silk cocoon was found.</span>

The acclaimed environmental book, Silent Spring, was written by this woman in 1962.
olga_2 [115]
Rachel Carson was the author of the acclaimed environmental book, Silent Spring. The book was published in 1962.
It documented the negative effect that synthetic pesticides have on the environment, specifically on birds.
This book laid bare to the American public what chemical companies indirectly contributed to the environment. 
The public furor this book caused led to the reversal of the national pesticide policy, a nationwide ban on DDT for agricultural uses, and inspired the creation of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.

pashok25 [27]
Refer to the figure below.
R = resistance.

Case 1:
The voltage source is V₁ and the current is 10 mA. Therefore
V₁ = (10 mA)R

Case 2:
The voltage source is V₂ and the current is 8 mA. Therefore
V₂ = (8 mA)R

Case 3:
The voltage across the resistance is V₁ - V₂. Therefore the current I is given by
V₁ - V₂ = IR
10R - 8R = (I mA)R
2 = I
The current is 2 mA.

Answer: 2 mA
