Answer:
The ball has an acceleration of -380 m/s², this means the ball slows down
An acceleration of -380 m/s² is the equivalent of 38.736 g's
Explanation:
Step 1: Data given
Velocity of the baseball at time t=0 = 38 m/s
At time t, the ball stops. This means v = 0
time before stops = 0.1s
Step 2: Calculate the acceleration
v= v0+at
with v= the velocity of the ball at time t = 0. v= 0
with v0 = the velocity of the ball at time t=0. v0 = 38 m/s
with a= the acceleration in m/s²
with t = time in seconds
0 = 38 + a*0.1
a = -380 m/s²
The ball has an acceleration of -380 m/s², this means the ball slows down
An acceleration of -380 m/s² is the equivalent of 38.736 g's
