Question

A 0.2-kilogram softball is thrown toward a catcher’s mitt. The ball is accelerating at a rate of 8 meters per second squared. With what force will the ball hit the catcher’s mitt?

Answer 1

Answer:

1.6N

Explanation:

Step 1: Write the formula for finding Force

F=mass x acceleration

Step 2: Calculate the force

mass=0.2kg, acceleration=8m/s2

F=0.2x8=1.6

Hence, the ball will hit the catcher's mitt with a force of 1.6N
