Serway & Jewett β Linear Momentum and Collisions: Problem 3
A baseball approaches home plate at a speed of $45.0\text{ m/s}$, moving horizontally just before being hit by a bat. The batter hits a pop-up such that after hitting the bat, the baseball is moving at $55.0\text{ m/s}$ straight up. The ball has a mass of $145\text{ g}$ and is in contact with the bat for $2.00\text{ ms}$. What is the average vector force the ball exerts on the bat during their interaction?
