The magnitude of the force that the baseball exerts on the bat is 500 N.
The given parameters;
According to Newton's third law of motion, action and reaction are equal and opposite. That is, when an object A exerts a certain force on another object B, the reaction of object B is equal to the magnitude of the force exerted by object A but in opposite direction.
Let the force the baseball exerts on the bat = F₂
then, from Newton's third law, we will have the following;
F₁ = -F₂
500 = -F₂
-500 N = F₂ (500 N is magnitude while the negative sign is the direction)
Thus, the magnitude of the force that the baseball exerts on the bat is 500 N.
