Question

In T-ball, batters hit a ball that is placed on a T-shaped stand. Batter A hits the ball by swinging the bat from a resting position on his shoulder. Batter B hits the ball with the bat directly behind it. In one or two sentences, create and justify a claim about which batter will likely hit the ball the greater distance. :)

Answer 1

Batter A will likely hit the ball the greater distance, as swinging the bat from a resting position allows for a full and dynamic swing, utilizing more momentum and generating greater bat speed at impact compared to batter B, who is positioned directly behind the ball and may not achieve the same level of force or follow-through.
