Baseball: a baseball b, weighing .14 kg is thrown at 44 m/s at the batter. The batter swings the bat B, which weighs 0.95 kg at 39 m/s hitting the baseball. Assume precise conservation of energy and momentum and the motion during the hit is exactly horizontal. Calculate the conservation of energy and momentum and solve for the final velocities of the ball and bat. What is the total mechanical kinetic energy? If the impulse is rectangular (goes to maximum force immediately and to zero as well) and lasts for 0.02 s, what is the strength of the force of the bat on the ball? What is the strength of the force of the ball on the bat?
