(a) James has the most momentum which is 294 kgm/s.
(b) The resultant force acting on Basma is 90.78 N.
(c) The time taken for James to stop is 3.2 seconds.
<h3>
Momentum of each person</h3>
Momentum of James: P = mv = 98 x 3 = 294 kgm/s
Momentum of Basma: P = mv = 59 x 4 = 236 kgm/s
<h3>Resultant force of Basma</h3>
F = ma = mv/t = P/t = 236/2.6 = 90.78 N
<h3>Time for James to stop</h3>
F = P/t
t = P/F
t = 294/90.78
t = 3.2 s

<span>For this example, the value presented would be considered a statistic. The value is a statistic as it represents a numerical measurement of a sample. If it were a parameter, it would need to represent a numerical measurement of a population.</span>
The potential energy of a 30N ball on the ground will be zero. With respect to height, h. Potential energy will be calculated like this. P=mgh. So if its on the ground relatively speaking the h=0. Thus inputting into the above formula. P=0.
