I got all but this problem.

A 0.145-kg baseball is pitched at 42.0 m/s. The batter hits it horizontally to the pitcher at 58 m/s.

A. Find change in momentum? Is it =.145*58-(-.145*42)=1.45-kg m/s?

B. If bat and ball are in contact for 4.6 x 10-4 s, what is average force during contact?

ah 100*.145 = 14.5 not 1.45

the change in momentum divided by the time in contact = average force.
