While playing basketball in PE class, Logan lost his balance after making a lay-up and colliding with the padded wall behind the

basket. His 74-kg body decelerated from 7.6 m/s to 0 m/s in 0.16 seconds.
a. Determine the force acting upon Logan's body.
b. If Logan had hit the concrete wall moving at the same speed, his momentum would have been reduced to zero in 0.0080 seconds. Determine what the force on his body would have been for such an abrupt collision.

Answer:

a.) F = 3515 N

b.) F = 140600 N

Explanation: given that the

Mass M = 74kg

Initial velocity U = 7.6 m/s

Time t = 0.16 s

Force F = change in momentum ÷ time

F = (74×7.6)/0.16

F = 3515 N

b.) If Logan had hit the concrete wall moving at the same speed, his momentum would have been reduced to zero in 0.0080 seconds

Change in momentum = 74×7.6 + 74×7.6

Change in momentum = 562.4 + 562.4 = 1124.8 kgm/s

F = 1124.8/0.0080 = 140600 N

lyudmila [28]

All of the above, work is a measurement of energy transfer, in Joules.

Potential energy = Joules

Kinetic energy = Joules

The key thing here is that anything having to do with just energy or energy transfer is measured in joules.

Part complete during a collision with a wall, the velocity of a 0.200-kg ball changes from 20.0 m/s toward the wall to 12.0 m/s
Inga [223]

The average force applied to the ball= 106.7 N

Explanation:

Force is given by

f= ΔP/t

ΔP= change in momentum= m Vf- m Vi

m= mass =0.2 kg

Vf= final velocity= 12 m/s

Vi=initial velocity= -20 m/s ( negative because it is going towards the wall which is treated as negative axis)

t= time= 60 ms= 0.06 s

now ΔP= 0.2 [ 12-(-20)]

ΔP=0.2 (32)=6.4 kg m/s

now force F= ΔP/t

F= 6.4/0.06

F=106.7 N

Quel est le gaz présent dans la couche d’ozone
stepan [7]

Answer:

L'ozone est produit à partir du dioxygène, composé de deux atomes d'oxygène(O2). Aux altitudes supérieures à 30 km, le rayonnement solaire possède encore une énergie suffisante pour casser une partie des molécules de dioxygène et libérer les atomes
