Answers:
a) -2.54 m/s
b) -2351.25 J
Explanation:
This problem can be solved by the <u>Conservation of Momentum principle</u>, which establishes that the initial momentum 
must be equal to the final momentum 
:
(1)
Where:
(2)
(3)
is the mass of the first football player
is the velocity of the first football player (to the south)
is the mass of the second football player
is the velocity of the second football player (to the north)
is the final velocity of both football players
With this in mind, let's begin with the answers:
a) Velocity of the players just after the tackle
Substituting (2) and (3) in (1):
(4)
Isolating :
(5)
(6)
(7) The negative sign indicates the direction of the final velocity, to the south
b) Decrease in kinetic energy of the 110kg player
The change in Kinetic energy 
is defined as:
(8)
Simplifying:
(9)
(10)
Finally:
(10) Where the minus sign indicates the player's kinetic energy has decreased due to the perfectly inelastic collision
Quantum theory is the theoretical basis of modern physics that explains the nature and behavior of matter and energy on the atomic and subatomic level. The nature and behavior of matter and energy at that level is sometimes referred to as quantum physics and quantum mechanics.

The magnitude is pointing towards the origin and is at - 20 degrees. The combination makes 160 with the x axis: C answer

They keep doing this. They use distance where they should use displacement but they use distance to try and fool you. It's a mighty poor practice.
The distance between the start and end points is the displacement. That "distance" is 180*sqrt(25) = 900 . The actual distance should be 180*4 + 180*3 = 720 + 540 = 1260. That's what a car's odometer or a bicycle odometer would read. the difference is 360.
I really do object to the wording, but what can I do?

Nine is the same thing as 8.
Displacement = sqrt(400^2 + 80^2)= sqrt(166400) = 408
The actual distance is 400 + 80 = 480
The difference is the answer = 480 - 408 = 72 <<<< Answer

This is just the displacement magnitude.
dis = sqrt(30^2 + 80^2)
dis = sqrt(900 + 6400)
dis = sqrt(7300)
dis = 85.44 <<<< Answer D

Vi = 2.15*Sin(30) = 1.075 m/s
vf = 0
a = - 9.81
t = ?
<u>Formula</u>
a = (vf - vi)/t
<u>Solve</u>
-9.81 = (0 - 1.075)/t
- 9.81 * t = -1.075
t = 0.11 seconds

I'm leaving this last one to you. You need the initial height xo to answer it properly. Judging by the other questions, this one is right.
Edit
That is a surprise! Really quickly
d = 3.2 m
a = - 9.82
vf = 0
vi = ?
vf^2 = vi^2 - 2*a*d
0 = vi^2 - 2*9.81*3.2
vi = sqrt(19.62*3.2)
vi = 8.0 m/s But that is the vertical component of the speed
v = vi/sin(25)
v = 8.0/sin(25) = 11
Entropy is an extensive property of a thermodynamic system. It quantifies the number Ω of microscopic configurations (known as microstates) that are consistent with the macroscopic quantities that characterize the system (such as its volume, pressure and temperature).[1] Under the assumption that each microstate is equally probable, the entropy
S
S is the natural logarithm of the number of microstates, multiplied by the Boltzmann constant
