Answer:

F = 3,445.71 N

Explanation:

Finding the deceleration (a):

a = \frac{u - v}{t}

initial velocity = u = 40.2 m/s

final velocity = v = 0 m/s

a = 40.2/0.56 = 71.785 m/s^2

Now, Finding the force:

F = ma

mass = m = 48.0 kg

a = 71.785 m/s^2

the force is found to be 3,445.71 N

Answer:

F = 3445.714\,N

Explanation:

The system can be modelled appropriately by the use of the Principle of Momentum Conservation and Impact Theorem:

(48\,kg)\cdot (40.2\,\frac{m}{s} ) - F\cdot (0.56\,s) = 0\,\frac{kg\cdot m}{s}

The average force exerted on her:

F = 3445.714\,N

VR of a single movable Pulley is 2,why?​
IRISSAK [1]

Explanation:

Hey, there!!

Single movable pulley has 2 VR because in single fixed pulley, load is supported with two segments of the string. It makes the effort distance double of the load distance. {As VR = No.of pulley used or number of rope segments that supports the load.}

A ball falling through the air has what?
AysviL [449]
A ball falling through the air has a mass, a density, a volume...it is facing air resistance and is being acted on by gravity...it is accelerating and gaining velocity...and it is increasing in kinetic energy.
I suppose out of all those the biggest thing the ball has in this case is ENERGY. There are two main types to focus on...

Kinetic Energy - The further the ball fall the more KE it has...until terminal velocity is reach, then KE would become constant. 
Potential Energy - Conversely to that of KE, the further the ball falls the less PE it will have. 

<em>Heat/Thermal Energy is technically also present due to the friction from the air resistance, but the transfer of energy between the air and ball is quite complex and not necessary important for basic physics.  
</em>
The question itself seem kind of vague and open ended, but I could just be viewing it the wrong way.

For the answer to the question, ergonomics<span> is the science of fitting the job to the worker. When there is a mismatch between the physical requirements of the job and the physical capacity of the worker, work-related musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) can result. Ergonomics is the practice of designing equipment and work tasks to conform to the capability of the worker, it provides a means for adjusting the work environment and work practices to prevent injuries before they occur.</span>
