In a baseball game, one of the players graps the ball and lessens the influence of the ball by moving his hand back. The ball touches the player's hand at a speed of 140.4 km/h in the horizontal direction. The ball is 152 gr. The player moves his hand back with an average speed of 8 m/s over 14 cm in the horizontal direction. In this way, the player has caused the ball to stop. Calculate the average impulsive force applied on the hand of the player.

When baseball outfielders throw the ball, they usually allow it to take one bounce, on the theory that the ball arrives at its target sooner that way. Suppose that, after the bounce, the ball rebounds at the same angle θ that it had when it was released (as in Fig. P3.64), but loses half its speed. (a) Assuming that the ball is always thrown with the same initial speed, at what angle θ should the ball be thrown in order to go the same distance D with one bounce as a ball thrown upward at 45.0° with no bounce? (b) Determine the ratio of the times for the one-bounce and no-bounce throws.
