Actually, I believe that a greater determinant of distance is bat speed. The greater the bat speed the further the ball will travel.
chiken
yes, because the heavier the bat is, the more weight you swing behind the ball and the further the baseball travels
The mass of the bat and the baseball.
umm.i still don't knoww
A bat hitting a baseball is an elastic collision which means there is a transfer of momentum from the bat to the ball. Since momentum is equal to mass multiplied by velocity, a higher mass means more momentum. However, you also must consider that it is harder to swing a heavier bat and therefore it will travel slower and therefore have less momentum.

according to the MLB the standard baseball bat is approximately 465 grams
the heaviest one
Yes, as does, of course, the strength of the swing. Too heavy of a bat will result in a weaker swing. Every batter has their own specific bat mass that allows them to hit the ball further according to their swinging abilities. It can take quite a bit of time and investigation for a player to determine which bat is right for them.
it can help
There is a trampoline effect when a ball hits a bat. The warmer the bat, the more the bat is able to contract and expand to create this effect. The colder the bat, the less able it is to create the trampoline effect.
Of course! If it was a mile wide, do think you could move it with a bat??
