A pitched baseball leaves the baseball bat with a speed of 65.0 m/s. The mass of the baseball is 145 g and it is in contact with the baseball bat for 4.00 m/s. Determine the Force applied to the ball.

Answer 1

Force x time = change of momentum

t = 4 ms = 0.004s

change of momentum = mv

m = 145g = 0.145 kg

v = 65 m/s

you can calculate the force now
