-- If the force is applied in the <em>same direction</em> as the object is moving, then the object's momentum in that direction will <em>increase</em>.

-- If the force is applied in the direction <em>OPPOSITE </em>to the way the object is moving, then the object's momentum will <em>decrease</em>.

-- In either case, the CHANGE in the object's momentum will be

(strength of the force) x (length of time the force is applied) .

This quantity is also called "impulse".

If the force of a golf club on a golf ball is 200 N forward, what will the force of the ball on the club be?
Afina-wow [57]

Newton's Third Law is every action has an equal and opposite reaction.

B. 200 N Backwards is the correct answer

The ball should put 200 N of force towards the golfer.

The ball is exerting 200 N of force towards the club as well, but the opposite reaction is that it flies away.

For more details: For each reaction there must be a opposite reaction(Which is the ball going 200 N backwards) and an equal reaction(The ball putting 200 N of force towards the golfer and the golfer)

What is the linear speed of a point on the equator, due to the earth's rotation?
kvv77 [185]
The equatorial radius of the earth is
r = 6378 km = 6378 x 10³ m

The earth makes 1 revolution in 24 hours.
The angular velocity is
ω = (2π rad)/(24*3600 s) = 7.2722 x 10⁻⁵ rad/s

The tangential velocity (linear velocity) at a point on the equator is
v = rω
   = (6378 x 10³ m)*(7.2722 x 10⁻⁵ rad/s)
   = 463.8 m/s

Answer: 463.8 m/s
