a pitcher throws a baseball has a mass of 0.15kg. If the momentum of the ball is 5.9kg m/s what is the balls speed?
To calculate the speed of the ball, we can use the formula:
Speed = Momentum / Mass
In this case, the momentum of the ball is given as 5.9 kg m/s and the mass of the ball is 0.15 kg.
Applying the formula, we have:
Speed = 5.9 kg m/s / 0.15 kg
Now, we can divide the momentum by the mass to get the speed:
Speed = 39.33 m/s
Therefore, the speed of the ball is 39.33 m/s.
