Question

A baseball player bats a ball with a force of 1000 N. The ball exerts a reaction force against the bat of less than or more than 1000 N

Answer 1

Answer: Greater then 1000 N.

Explanation: Due to Newton's Third law, (For every reaction, there is an equal and opposite reaction) there must be an opposite reaction for the baseball to bounce off the bat, and it has to be greater than 1000 N.
