Reference no: EM13508739

During a baseball game, a batter approaches the plate. The pitcher hurtles the ball in the direction of the batter at a speed of 85 miles per hour. The batter swings and makes contact with the ball. The kinetic energy of the ball-batter system is increased by 50%. The ball weighs 5oz. and the batter weighs 195lbs. What is the kinetic energy of this system before the collision? What is the momentum of the system in the center of mass frame?
