If the velocity of a pitched ball has a magnitude of 47.0 m/s and the batted ball's velocity is 50.5 m/s in the opposite direction, find the magnitude of the change in momentum of the ball and of the impulse applied to it by the bat.

The magnitude of change in momentum of the ball is and impulse is also

Explanation:

Given:

Velocity of a pitched ball

Velocity of ball after impact

From the formula of change in momentum,

Here mass is not given in question,

Mass of ball is

Change in momentum is given by,

Magnitude of change in momentum is

And impulse is given by

So impulse and

Therefore, the magnitude of change in momentum of the ball is and impulse is also
