A pitched baseball (m=0.3 kg) reaches a catcher’s glovetravelling at a velocity of 28 m/s. Calculate the ball’s: A)momentum, B) kinetic energy. How much impulse is required to catchthe ball? If the hand moves backward 32cm while the person iscatching it, what is the average force applied to the ball? Howmuch time will it take before the ball stops? What is the averagepower of this contact?
