With Ball and Bat
Why a Swiftly Delivered Ball
Flies From the Encounter
With the Bat Faster Than a
Slow One, and Under What
Conditions the Ball WIU Bat
the Bat.
By GARRETT P. SERVISS

ment on which we would like to
have light. I claim that a ball will,
when hit by. the bat, travel farther
It It Is a swift-pitched ball; ho says
no, because there is moro resistance
to overcome if the ball is swift. I
base my claim on the fact that a
hall thrown against a stone wall will
rebound farther the harder It Is
thrown. Yet there is a paradox
here which I wish you would ex
plain. We all know that an object
must be brought to a complete stop
before it can return on its track;
why then does not tho ball when
stopped by the wall fall down the

j side of the wall?—G. A. Anderson,
Boston."
Your view of the conduct of the
pitched ball hit by a bat Is odrrect;
the swift ball is thrown back with
greater velocity than the slow ball,
the reason being that the elacticlty
of both the ball and the bat restores
a large part of the total momentum
possessed by them before their en
counter; this restored momentum Is
shared between the ball and the bat,
what is lost by one being gained by
the other. If there were no elasticity
the ball would not rebound from the
bat, and, after the meeting, the two
would move together in the same di
rection with a common velocity.
Applying this to the case of a ball
thrown against a wall, we see that
it is the elasticity that causes the
ball to rebound after its forward
motion has been arrested, if neither
tho ball nor the wa|l had any elas
ticity, the ball would drop to the
loot of the wall, all its momentum
having been turned into invisible vi
bratory motions of the molecules of
both ball and wall, and, if the ve
locity were very high, this molecular
motion would appear as sensible
heat.
The amusement and instruction
that can be got out of a ball and a
bat are not limited to the enjoyment
so enthusiastically expressed by
baseball "fans." If Sir Isaac New
ton could have seen an American
pitcher and batter in action he
would have been fascinated by the,
brilliant demonstrations they would '
have afforded htm of the truth of his
laws of motion.
Let us consider some examples.
Suppose the bat weighs ten times
as much as the ball, and that the
velocity of tho ball when it meets
the bat is fifty feet per second. Sup
pose, too, that the batter simply,
holds out his bat to catch the ball,
without striking. Then the velocity
of the bat will be 0, or nothing.
Further suppose that the elas
ticity is sufficient to restore three
fifths of the momentum lost at the
moment of impact. This is called
the "coefficient of restitution," and
may vary according to the substance
concerned from oto 1. But 1 would
represent perfect elasticity, which is
never met with. Now, applying the
formulas of analytical mechanics to
the problem (any large text-book of
physics will give the most Important
of them), we find that after the ball,
moving fifty feet per second, has
met the motionless bat, weighing
ten times the weight of the ball, the
latter wiil, if the impact be direct,
rebound toward the pitcher with a
velocity of 22 S-ll feet per second,
while the bat will be forced back
ward with a velocity of 7 2-11 feet
per second.
Now, to show the effect of alter
ing either the relative velocity or
the relative weight of ball and bat
(momentum being the product of
mass, or weight, multiplied by ve
locity), let us try several variants of
the problem. First keeping the
weights and the velocity of the ball
the same, let the batter strike with
a velocity of 10 feet per second. In
that case tho velocity with which
the ball will rebound will be 33 3-11
feet per second, while the bat, in
stead of recoiling, will follow the
ball with a velocity of 1 3-11 feet.
Next try the effect of increasing
the velocity of the ball while that of
the bat remains unchanged. For
instance, let the ball meet the bat
with a velocity of GO feet per sec
ond, while the bat hits the ball with
a velocity, as before, of 10 feet per
second. Then, after impact the ball
will rebound 41 9-11 feet per second,
while the bat will be driven back
ward 2-11 feet per second.
I feel that at this point some
reader will say: "Oh what's all that
mathematics to me?" Well, my dear
sir, I'll indicate what it ought to be
to you and to every other intelligent
person. It is the kind of thing that
has made modern civilization. The
man who can speak a dozen lan
guages, or who has read all the
hooks in all the literatures, is not
tho man who makes tho world go;
the man who does make it go is the
one who can deal with forces, masses
and velocities, because he under
stands the grammar of nature and
reads her books.
Now for one more example. Let
us diminish the weight of the bat,
while keeping the initial velocities
the same as in our first • variant
above. Call the weight of the ball
1 and that of the bat 5, while the
velocity of the ball is 50 and that
of the hat 10. Then, after impact
the ball will rebound 30 feet per
second, while the bat will be pushed
hack G feet per second. But when
the bat was twice as heavy," the
initial velocities being the same, the
ball after impact flew back 37 3-11
feet per second and the bat followed
it 1 3-11 feet per second.
The difference shows the effect of
halving the weight of the bat. If
the latter were cut down to equality
with the weight of the ball, the
initial velocities remaining as above,
then after impact the ball would not
rebound, but would go on in its
original direction two feet a second,
while the bat would be shot back
ward 38 feet per second.
You see what a lot of fun, of a
particular variety, the thoughtful
man, with his hat drawn over his
eyes and a pencil in his hand, can
have while his neighbors on the
bleachers are making the air hum.
