Question

What’s the force of a pitching machine on a baseball?

Answer 1

Answer:

The Machine exerts a force of 9N.

Explanation:

Inital velocity (u) = 0 m/s

Final velocity (v) = 30 m/s

Time (t) = 0.5 s

Acceleration (a) = (v-u)/t

= (30-0)/0.5 m/s2

= 60 m/s2

Mass = 0.15 kg

Force = Mass*Acceleration

= 0.15*60 N

= 9 N
