A baseball collides with a baseball glove. Which equation is used to calculate the force the glove exerts on the ball during the collision? (1 paint)

force = weight x acceleration

force = mass x velocity

force = mass x acceleration

force = weight x velocity

1 answer

The correct equation to calculate the force the glove exerts on the ball during the collision is:

force = mass x acceleration

This equation is derived from Newton's second law of motion, which states that the force acting on an object is equal to the mass of that object multiplied by its acceleration (F = ma).
