A baseball of mass 0.152 kg, travelling horizontally at 37.5 m/s [E], collides with a baseball bat. The collision lasts for 1.15 ms. Immediately after the collision, the baseball travels horizontally at 49.5 m/s[W]. (a) Determine the initial momentum of the baseball. (b) What is the average force applied by the bat to the baseball? (c) Determine the ratio of the magnitude of this force to the magnitude of the force of gravity on the baseball.
