A football player carrying the ball runs straight ahead at the line of scrimmage and directly into a wall of defensive linemen.

The ball carrier has an initial speed of 7.36 m/s and is stopped in a time interval of 0.180 s. Find the magnitude and direction of his average acceleration.

solution:

we have the following formula for average acceleration\\a_{ave}=\frac{v_{f}-v_{i}}{t}\\=\frac{0-(7.36)}{0.180}\\=-40.88m/s^2\\

Now the direction of this signed acceleration is towards in the direction of travel of the ball carrier.

But as this acceleration is negative we could just as validly state that the acceleration is 40.88m/s^2in the opposite direction to the ball carrier's travel.

Although both are valid, the latter statement is probably the answer you are expected to give .

An advertisement claims that a particular automobile can "stop on a dime". What net force would actually be necessary to stop an
Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

F = 4399 KN

Explanation:

given,

mass of automobile = 890 kg

initial speed = 48 km/h

                     = 48 × 0.278 = 13.34 m/s

using equation of motion

v² = u² + 2 a × s

0 = 13.34² - 2 a ×0.018

a = \dfrac{13.34^2}{0.036}

a = 4943.21 m/s²

F   = m × a

F   = 890 × 4943.21

F   =  4399456.9 N

F = 4399 KN

hence, the  Net force is F = 4399 KN

lidiya [134]

Answer:

ma= ma

m⋅a = m⋅a

And equivalently:

am=ma

a⋅m = m⋅a

Explanation:

Question

Assuming this question "Similar to what you see in your textbook, you can generally omit the multiplication symbol as you answer questions online, except when the symbol is  needed to make your meaning clear. For example, 1*10^5 is not the same as 110^5 . When you need to be explicit, type * (Shift + 8) to insert the multiplication operator. You will see a multiplication dot (⋅) appear in the answer box. Do not use the symbol x. For example, for the expression ma,

typing m⋅a would be correct, but mxa would be incorrect".

Solution to the problem

For this case we want to write a expression for ma, and based on the previous info we can write:

ma= ma

m⋅a = m⋅a

And equivalently:

am=ma

a⋅m = m⋅a

But is not correct do this:

mxa=mxa

axm = mxa
