When hit by a boy with a bat wich goes father softball or baseball?

It depends on which bat you use. If you use a softball bat, a baseball will go farther. If you use a baseball bat, a baseball will also go farther. Baseballs are generally considered a "live" ball. It's hot off the bat. This is why major leaguers use wood bats. The "dead"-ness of their bats slow the ball down a little. So A Softball is generally considered a "dead" ball. Softball players use bats that are "hot." In order to increase the speed of the ball off the bat. So when you pair a hot bat with a hot ball, (a baseball and softball bat) it will damage your bat (and is not recommended to try), but it will go farther. Also, a softball is larger. Based on the laws of aerodynamics, a baseball picks up less wind-resistance, and thus travels at a faster rate and farther on the fly. Therefore, a baseball will travel farther. Think of the proportions of a field. Baseball fields are larger because of how far and hard the ball travels through the air. Softball fields are smaller because the softballs are bigger and travel more difficultly through the air. It depends on which bat you use. If you use a softball bat, a baseball will go farther.

Is north cold or hot?

North America has both hot and cold weather. The farther north you go, the colder the winters are. The farther south you travel, the hotter the summers are.


Does heat travel from cold objects to hot objects?

No, heat naturally flows from hot objects to cold objects. This is based on the second law of thermodynamics, which states that heat always moves in the direction that increases the entropy of a system.


In what direction does air travel when moving from a hot region to a cold region?

Air travels from a hot region to a cold region in a direction from high pressure to low pressure.


What direction does heat travel in?

Heat travels from Hot to cold. Not up!


What are the difference between a hot and cold softball will it bounce different?

I did my science fair on this, there was no huge difference in the two. But when hitting the hot and cold ball you could definitely feel a difference. In my project i concluded the cold ones go further because they are harder


Do baseballs fly farther when cold as opposed to hot?

i don't know if the temperature of the baseball itself affects it's flight time, but i have noticed that balls do fly futher when the -air- is hot, as opposed to cold


What border does the jet stream travel between?

The jet stream travels between hot and cold air.


Why is it hot in the tropics and cold in the polar regions?

it is hot in the tropics because it is near the equater. anything near the equater will be warmer. it is colder in the polar regions because it is farther from the equater near equater= warmer farther from equater= colder


How does heat travel, and in which direction does it typically move, according to the principle that heat travels from hot to cold?

Heat travels through conduction, convection, and radiation. According to the principle that heat moves from hot to cold, it typically moves from areas of higher temperature to areas of lower temperature.


What makes sound travel slowly?

Tempurature makes sound travel slowly. If it is cold outside sound travels slowly and if it is hot outside sound travels quickly.


How do you throw a baseball farther?

You build your fore arm and bicep muscles. A baseball travels farther in hot weather than in cold weather. Also, whenever you throw, whatever strength you have and whatever the weather is like, you'll get the maxumum distance out of your throw if you aim it 45 degrees above the horizon ... half-way up between level and straight up over your head.
