No
I would disagree with the answer NO. I believe that a bat hitting a Baseball transfers energy. The energy of the swinging bat, transfers it's swinging energy into the ball, causing the ball to stop moving in one direction, changing and then quickly moving away in another direction.
So, my guess would be that yes, a bat transfers energy when it hits a baseball.
Now, not knowing bunches about physics (yeah, sure, I studied it in college--and barely passed the course), I can't give you the formulas and such. I'll leave that to someone else better versed in physics
What else can I help you with?
How much energy is needed to swing a softball bat?
There is not much energy needed to swing a softball bat if you can find the right size and weight for your age and weight. There are different websites just go to google and type this question, and there will be a place where they recommend a bat!
How does the energy in a persons muscles help in swinging a baseball bat?
it can make you swing the bat faster but it doesn't mean you hit better
When swing a golf club will it gain speed and kinetic energy?
yes of course
What is an example of work that you can do to transfer kinetic energy?
One example is pushing a swing. By pushing the swing, you transfer kinetic energy from your body to the swing, causing it to move back and forth. This transfer of energy allows the swing to gain momentum and continue swinging.
What type of energy is transfered as a bat hits a ball?
You transfer energy[chemical] from your body to the bat[kinetic] to attack the ball. No energy is lost, but some heat is. It is the same as the Law of Conservation of matter. Hope this helps! =D
How fast can you swing a bat?
because it can
In baseball what is an infield hit where the hitter does not swing the bat?
a bunt is where you hold your bat out in front of the plate holding the upper base and do not swing it
Why do you need a push to go up in a swing?
A push is needed to go up in a swing because it provides the initial kinetic energy required to overcome gravity and gain height. When you push, you increase the swing's speed, allowing it to convert that kinetic energy into potential energy as it rises. Gravity then works to pull the swing back down, creating a back-and-forth motion. Without the initial push, the swing would not have enough energy to ascend.
Will adding swing weights to a baseball bat make you swing faster or slower?
Actually on the show Sports Science they proved that when you swing with a weighted bat it actually messes up your swing mechanics because it uses the wrong muscles.
What are 3 examples of kintic energy?
Kinetic energy is moving energy or energy in motion so it could be when you drop a ball, swing a bat or hit a ball with a bat
How do you swing a bat to hit a HR?
you have to use a lot force from the arms when swinging a bat.
What kind of bat does Bryce Harper swing?
