Answer:
[tex]I=3kgm/s[/tex]
[tex]F=8086.25N[/tex]
Explanation:
The impulse imparted can be obtained using the equation [tex]I=m\Delta v[/tex]. In our case, since the ball departs from rest, we have:
[tex]I=m(v_b-v_{0b})=(45.9g)((146mph)-(0mph))=6701.4gmph[/tex]
We can convert this to S.I. using the corresponding conversion factors (which are equal to 1, thus not altering our value):
[tex]6701.4gmph=6701.4g\frac{miles}{h}(\frac{1kg}{1000g})(\frac{1609.34m}{1\ mile})(\frac{1h}{3600s})=3kgm/s[/tex]
Since also the impulse relates to the average force by the equation [tex]I=F\Delta t[/tex], we can use our values to calculate this force:
[tex]F=\frac{I}{\Delta t}=\frac{3kgm/s}{0.000371s}=8086.25N[/tex]
