The pitcher throws a 0.1 kg baseball towards you at 80 m/s. You swing at the ball with you 1.0 kg bat, at a velocity of 40 m/s towards the ball.

a) Find the total momentum of ball-bat system, before you hit the ball.

b)The ball collides with the bat and flies into the outfield. What is the total momentum of the ball-bat system after the collision?

c) Assume that the bat comes to a complete stop during the collision. What is the velocity of the ball after the collision?

A pitcher throws a 0.140-kg baseball with a speed of 28.9 m/s. The batter strikes it with an average force of 5000 N which results in the ball traveling with an initial speed of 37.0 m/s toward the pitcher. For how long were the bat and ball in contact? 1.32 × 10-2 s 4.44 × 10-3 s 3.17 × 10-2 s 1.85 × 10-3 s

A pitcher throws a 0.140-kg baseball, and it approaches the bat at a speed of 30.0 m/s. The bat does Wnc = 60.0 J of work on the ball in hitting it. Ignoring air resistance, determine the speed of the ball after the ball leaves the bat and is 25.0 m above the point of impact. As far as I know the ball does move in a straight line. This is the entire question.

A 0.15 kg baseball collides with a 1.0 kg bat. The ball has a velocity of 40 m/s immediately before the collision. The center of mass of the bat also has a velocity of 40 m/s, but in the opposite direction, just before the collision. The coefficient of restitution between the bat and the ball is 0.50. Estimate how fast the baseball is moving as it leaves the bat following the collision.

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...
