Why would a baseball be hitting another baseball?
Friction between the ball and the surface it's rolling on causes the ball to slow down. As the ball moves, frictional forces act in the opposite direction of its motion, converting some of its kinetic energy into heat. The rougher the surface or the more contact the ball has with the surface, the greater the friction and the faster the ball will slow down.
Yes it does, but only ever so slightly, mostly because a person holding a bat is not a solid structure, so inevitably the person will move with the bat, when the ball is struck.
Yes, things such as longer grass and water on the greens will slow a ball down.
It depends on the initial velocity, and it also depends on time, because the friction of the grass will slow the baseball down.
Friction.
You can kick a soccer ball (football) in outspace and it will never slow down.
A ball rolling on the ground slows down due to friction between the ball and the surface it is rolling on. As the ball moves, frictional forces act in the opposite direction of its motion, causing it to lose kinetic energy and gradually slow down. Additionally, air resistance may also contribute to the slowing down of the ball.
Yes
To slow down a ball, you can apply friction by rubbing it against a surface, increase air resistance by opening a parachute or adding drag-inducing features, or employ a magnetic field to create resistance. Each method can help reduce the speed and velocity of the ball effectively.
because its going slow and you are not sure when o hit it plus the ball might stop and or slow down and you may never hit it
No, a ball that hits the turf typically slows down due to the friction between the ball and the surface. The impact with the turf can absorb some of the ball's energy, causing it to lose speed.
