Answer:
Impulse, J = 2.1 kg-m/s
Explanation:
Given that,
Mass of baseball, m = 0.14 kg
It was approaching him at 50.0 m/s and, as a result, the ball leaves the bat at 35.0 m/s in the direction of the pitcher. We need to find the magnitude of Impulse delivered to the baseball.
The change in momentum is equal to the Impulse imparted to the ball i.e.
[tex]J=m(v-u)[/tex]
[tex]J=0.14(-35-50)[/tex]
J = -2.1 kg-m/s
So, the Impulse delivered to the baseball is 2.1 kg-m/s
