(88) If a baseball travels from the pitcher to the batter with an acceleration of 50 m/s2, (89) what is the force on the ball?

1 answer

To determine the force on the ball, we can use Newton's second law of motion, which states that force (F) equals mass (m) multiplied by acceleration (a).

Given:
Acceleration (a) = 50 m/s²

Since we are not provided with the mass (m) of the ball, we cannot calculate the exact force. Force depends on both acceleration and mass.
