A player hits a ball with a bat. The action is the force of the bat against the ball. What is the reaction to this force?

Force of the ball against the bat

Explanation:

Newton's third law of motion states that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. When a player hits a ball with a bat, the force the player exerted on the ball through the bat gave the ball a push force in the forward direction. This is an action force. Now that an action has been initiated, there must be a reaction according to Newton's third law of motion. The magnitude of the force on the ball equals the magnitude of the force on the bat. The direction of the force on the ball is opposite to the direction of the force on the ball. The ball will give the bat an equal and opposite force trying to push the bat backward by resisting the impact of the bat. This is the reaction. The ball will only move if the applied force is able to overcome the resisting force by the bat

Where;

is the action force of the bat against the ball.

is the equal and opposite reaction force of the ball towards the ball.

since you're a real machine, your ama is always less than your ima, because you can never totally eliminate friction.

well, you would divide 135 by 33 to get your answer. then that is how many seconds it would take. boardman should fly about 132 m or 4.090909090909091 seconds.
