9. A baseball, 167 grams, is pitched at 50 m/s when is hit by the batter. The ball travels in the
opposite direction it was thrown from with a speed of 70 m/s. What is the change in momentum
of the baseball?

Respuesta :

Answer:

90

Step-by-step explanation:

The change in momentum  of the baseball is 3.34kgm/s

Change in momentum

This is the product of mass and velocity of an object, It is expressed mathematically as:

  • Momentum = m(v - u)

From the given information;

Change in momentum = 0.167 (70 - 50)

Change in momentum = 0.167(20)

Change in momentum = 3.34kgm/s

Hence the change in momentum  of the baseball is 3.34kgm/s
