A professional boxer hits his opponent with a 1025 N horizontal blow that lasts 0.150 s. The opponent's total body mass is 116 k

g and the blow strikes him near his center of mass and while he is motionless in midair. Determine the following.
(a) impulse the boxer imparts to his opponent by this blow
kg · m/s
(b) the opponent's final velocity after the blow
m/s
(c) Calculate the recoil velocity of the opponent's 5.0-kg head if hit in this manner, assuming the head does not initially transfer significant momentum to the boxer's body.

Answer:

The impulse is  I  =  153.8 \ N \cdot s

The opponents velocity is  v=  1.33 m/s

The opponents head recoils velocity  v_r = 30.8 \ m/s

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The force of the blow is  F=  1025 \ N

    The duration of the blow is  t =  0.150

      The mass of the opponent is  m_o  =  116 \ kg

       The mass of the opponents head is  m_h  = 5 \ kg

The impulse the boxer imparts is mathematically represented as

         I  =  F *  t

substituting values

         I  =  1025 * 0.150

          I  =  153.8 \ N \cdot s

The impulse can also be mathematically evaluated as

         I  =  m_o * v

substituting values

          153.8  =  116 * v

          v=  \frac{153.8}{116}

          v=  1.33 m/s

The recoil velocity is mathematically represented as  

              v_r =  \frac{I}{m_h}

substituting values

                v_r =  \frac{153.8}{5}

                v_r = 30.8 \ m/s

What is the form of energy that is produced in all energy transformations?
Damm [24]

Answer: Long Answer...

Explanation: Most of the time, chemical energy is released in the form of heat, and this transformation from chemical energy to heat, or thermal energy, is called an exothermic reaction. Next, there are two main types of mechanical energy: kinetic energy and potential energy.
