Answer:

The answer is 40 m/s

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the baseball's speed we use the formula


v = (p)/(m) \\

where

m is the mass

p is the momentum

From the question

p = 6 kgm/s

m = 0.15 kg

We have


v = (6)/(0.15) \\

We have the final answer as

40 m/s

Hope this helps you
