Question

A bat strikes a 0.145 kg baseball. Just before impact, the ball is traveling horizontally to the right at 50.0 m/s, and it leaves the bat traveling to the left at an angle of 30.0 degrees above horizontal with a speed of 65.0 m/s.

A.)What is the horizontal component of the impulse the bat imparts to the ball?

B.)What is the vertical component of the impulse the bat imparts to the ball?

C.)If the ball and bat are in contact for 1.75 , find the horizontal component of the average force on the ball.

D.)If the ball and bat are in contact for 1.75 , find the vertical component of the average force on the ball.

Explanation / Answer

A) final velocity = -65cos(30)-50 final velocity * mass = horizontal component answer: -15.4 or 15.4 to the left B) (65sin(30))*mass = 4.71 upward C) 15.4/0.00175 = 8810 to the left D) 4.71/0.00175 = 2691 upward
