It would last as long as the applied force continued, or until the accelerating object hit something.
Answer:
Explanation:
Given a square Piece whose side is 12 inches
Now square pieces are cut from each corner to make it a open box
Suppose x is the length of square piece at each corner
then
base square has a length of 
Dimension of new box is 
Volume 

For maximum volume differentiate with respect to x we get

we get x=6 and 4 but at x=6 volume becomes zero therefore x=4 is valid



Answer:
The time it takes the ball to stop is 0.021 s.
Explanation:
Given;
mass of the softball, m = 720 g = 0.72 kg
velocity of the ball, v = 15.0 m/s
applied force, F = 520 N
Apply Newton's second law of motion, to determine the time it takes the ball to stop;

Therefore, the time it takes the ball to stop is 0.021 s.
