Question

a) A 0.5kg baseball experiences a 10N force for the duration of 0.1s. What is the change in velocity in the baseball?

Answer 1

2 m/s

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the formula:

Δv = (F x t)/m

where Δv is the change in velocity, F is the force applied, t is the duration of the force, and m is the mass of the object.

Substituting the given values, we get:

Δv = (10N * 0.1s) / 0.5kg

= 2 m/s

Therefore, the change in velocity of the baseball is 2 m/s.
