In a Little League baseball game, the 145 g ball reaches the batter with a speed of 15.0 m/s. The batter hits the ball, and it leaves his bat with a speed of 20.0 m/s in exactly the opposite direction. What is the magnitude of the impulse delivered by the bat to the ball

5.075Ns

Explanation:

Given the following :

Mass of ball = 145g

Initial Speed of ball = 15m/s

Final speed of ball when hit by the batter = - 20m/s ( Opposite direction)

The impulse of a body is represented using the relation:

Force(f) * time(t) = mass (m) * (final Velocity(V) - initial velocity(u))

Therefore, using:

m(v - u) = impulse

Mass of ball = 145 / 1000 = 0.145kg

Impulse = 0.145(- 20 - 15)

Impulse = 0.145(-35)

Impulse = 5.075Ns

sleep paralysis is a parasomnia, events associated with sleep.

sleep paralysis happens when you are in the middle of waking up or falling asleep. it is the feeling of being conscious but unable to move. it definitely involves hallucinations.

i had a friend that had sleep paralysis and he told me a story one time where he was laying in bed and he couldn't move his body no matter how hard he tried and there was someone standing in the corner of his room coming towards him. he couldn't move and you can't "wake up" because you are already conscious. sometimes sleep paralysis can be triggered by frequent waking up during the night based off of multiple trips to the bathroom, or if you had ever been abused, sleep paralysis can start happening from things like that.
