You are standing on a skateboard, initially at rest. a friend throws a very heavy ball towards you. you can either catch the obj

ect or deflect the object back toward your friend (such that it moves away from you with the same speed as it was originally thrown). what should you do in order to maximize your speed on the skateboard?

<span>You should deflect the ball in order to maximize your speed on the skateboard.

Since this creates a larger impulse, you want to deflect the ball. Splitting it up into catching and throwing the ball may by something you can think of deflecting the ball. First, you need to catch the ball, which in turn would push you forward with some speed. (The speed we are talking about should obviously be equal to option A, where you catch the ball). Now, throw the ball back to him since these two processes are equal to deflecting the ball. Throwing a mass away from you would cause or enable you to move even fast.</span>

A soccer ball with a mass of 0.434 kg approaches a player horizontally with a speed of 13.0 m/s. The player kicks the ball with
zaharov [31]

Answer:

a) 15.49

b) Opposite to the ball's initial velocity

c) 258.16N

Explanation:

a)

\Delta p=m \Delta v\\\\\Delta p= (0.434)(13.0-(-22.7)) \\\\\Delta p=(0.434)(35.7)\approx 15.49 kg \cdot m/s

b)

Since the player is kicking the ball in the opposite direction to which it came, the impulse is being directed opposite to the ball's initial velocity.

c)

\Delta p= F \Delta t \\\\\\F=\dfrac{\Delta p}{\Delta t} \\\\\\F=\dfrac{15.49 kg \cdot m/s}{0.06 s}\approx 258.16N

Hope this helps!
