if the velocity of a pitched ball has a magnitude of 43.5 m/sm/s and the batted ball's velocity is 56.0 m/sm/s in the opposite direction, find the magnitude of the change in momentum of the ball and of the impulse applied to it by the bat.



Answer :

1.82 kgm/s and 1.82 s^-1 is  momentum of the ball and of the impulse respectively applied to it by the bat.

 ball mass, m = 0.145 kg

   velocity of the pitched ball, v₁ = 43.5 m/s

   velocity of the batted ball, v₂ = 56.0 m/s

change in the momentum is

[tex]\Delta P=mv_1-mv_2[/tex]

ΔP=6.30-8.12

ΔP=-1.82 kgm/s

The ball's change in momentum is equal to the impulse it experiences.

[tex]J=\Delta P= 1.82/s[/tex]

A moving particle's change in dynamical state can be estimated using the physical quantity known as impulse. It is the change in momentum that a body experiences when it is briefly impacted by a force. It is a vector quantity, and the letter J is used to denote it.
