Question:
The elements of a device designed to measure the coefficient of restitution of bat–baseball collisions are shown. The 1-lb “bat” A is a short length of wood or aluminum which is projected to the right with a speed vA = 60 ft/sec within the confines of the horizontal slot. Just before and after the moment of impact, body A is free to move horizontally. The baseball B weighs 5.125 oz and has an initial speed vB = 125 ft/sec. If the coefficient of restitution is e = 0.5, determine the final speed of the baseball and the angle β which its final velocity makes with the horizontal.
