A baseball pitcher in good form can throw a baseball that attains a speed of 92 mi/h in a distance of 1.2 m. Assume that the ball starts from rest and its mass is 0.15 kg. a) Determine the average force (in N) exerted on the ball. b) How would the pitcher need to alter the required force to reach the same speed if the mass if the ball is increased?

A baseball with a mass of 153 g is thrown horizontally with a speed of 40.7 m/s (91 mi/h) at a bat. The ball is in contact with the bat for 1.00 ms and then travels straight back at a speed of 45.8 m/s (102 mi/h). Determine the average force exerted on the ball by the bat. Neglect the weight of the ball (it is much smaller than the force of the bat) and choose the direction of the incoming...

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 baseball pitcher is attempting to strike out a batter and they throw their best fast ball at 40m/s. The distance between the pitchers mound and the center of home plate is 17.5m. The batter swings the bat at an average of 12 rad/s just 0.3s after the pitcher releases the ball and the angular displacement of the bat from the batters shoulder to the hitting position directly over the place is 1.65 rads. Will the bat strike the ball,...

A quarterback is set up to throw the football to a receiver who is running with a constant velocity ~vr directly away from the quarterback and is now a distance D away from the quarterback. The quarterback estimates that the ball must be thrown at an angle θ to the horizontal and the receiver must catch the ball a time interval tc after it is thrown. Assume the ball is thrown and caught at the same height y = 0...
