A baseball (m=145g) traveling 35 m/s moves a fielder's glove backward 23 cm when the ball is caught. What was the average force exerted by the ball on the glove?

386.13 N

Explanation:

The kinetic energy of the baseball is converted into workdone in moving the glove backward( work energy theorem).

Therefore, KE of the ball

Now, workdone in moving the glove

W= Fd

where F = Force applied, d = displacement of the glove= 0.23 cm.

88.81 = F×0.23

F= 88.81/0.23 = 386.13 N
