Answer:
1 m/s²
Explanation:
Force = mass × acceleration
F = ma ............ Equation 1
Where F = force, m = mass, a = acceleration.
Given: m = 0.058 kg, a = 10 m/s²
Substitute into equation 1
F = 0.058(10)
F = 0.58 N.
If the same force was used to hit the baseball,
F = m'a
a = F/m'.............. Equation 2
Where M' = mass of the baseball.
Given: F = 0.58 N, m' = 0.58 kg.
Substitute into equation 2
a = 0.58/0.58
a = 1 m/s²
Answer:
1 m/s^2.
Explanation:
Note:
Force = mass x acceleration.
Given:
mass = 0.058 kg
acceleration = 10 m/s2
Therefore, force = 0.058 x 10
= 0.58 N.
Since the same force is to be used, this same value is used for the other condition.
mass = 0.58 kg
Force = 0.58 N
F = m × a
a = 0.58/0.58
= 1 m/s^2.
